some specs for the BEGI turbo at full throttle:

-4 seconds in second gear (approx 30-60mph),

-6 seconds in third gear (approx 60-80mph).

they're crude cause i used my BBQ timer. anyone got stock specs? great videos!!!!!!!!

 

Oooh oooh!! I want turbo!!!

 

Stock Numbers from May 2002 issue of Motor Trend

0-30 2.86
0-40 4.49
0-50 6.40
0-60 8.82
0-70 11.74
0-80 15.34
0-90 20.29

1/4 16.79 @ 82.67

 

Great videos, that's one hot car you have there! If I wasn't afraid about voiding warrantys, i'd definately get a p5 and that kit. Go get some vids or racing some other cars! I'd like to see how it perfoms in relation to other cars. Great stuff, man, keep it up!

 

the stock car does 30-80 mph in 12.48 seconds, and the quarter mile in 16.79 seconds @ 82 mph.

in the video, it looks like the BEGI turbo does 30-80 in 10 seconds, 2.48 seconds faster.

so, everything else constant, i'd guess the BEGI turbo would be 2.48 seconds faster in the quarter mile, ie 14.31 seconds.

a little unscientific, but for what it's worth.

 

any updates on the BEGI kit....like when it will be officialy out?

 

Corky is currently taking orders. The 1st 10 kits are discounted. Give him a call. http://www.bellengineering.net/

 

GD! I love this car and can't wait to spend $3500!!!!!!!!!!

AWESOME

 

hehe me too...after this upgrade i can start eating civic SIR's RSX's and maybe WRX's (doubt it though)

 

Thanks for the props! Played with a WRX a few weeks ago. Standing start I got murdered by the 4 wheel drive, he did not spin the tires. From a roll I edged him out. We had to shut down at about 90 mph.

 

That's what I like to hear!

 

WShade,
Maybe I missed it, but are you using an upgraded clutch yet? If not, is the stock one slipping a lot yet?

What sucks is that Corky didn't know/remember about the MP3s slightly advanced timing, so they are supposedly using a chip for the MP3 kit (see protegemp3.com thread in their forced induction section). I wonder how much the kit will be for me when I can afford it .

Chris

 

I just mailed in the balance on my kit to Corky

 

Stock clutch still. Only slips when cold.
