ive searched this and came up empty. i know the majority of you guys dont even drag but for those of u who might have ran your cars at drag strips what kind of times did you get and what was your setup?

how fast should a stock sr20det be in a 91 240sx?

yes from what i know it kinda is.. i have two friends who have there s13's in the 12s one of them is running 12.2 and the other just ran a 12.8 both cars at 110 mph trap speed. both were useing slicks... it is a pretty hard goal to reach but if you do things right you can get 12s, and that is what i am after as well is hitting those 12s but i got to get the sr20 first.

after reading other threads im leaning more towards doing an rb25 swap, not too much more for so much power and potential. a lot easier to hit 12s or better with that motor

the probelm is that finding parts are a bit harder with the rb also its gonna be a bit more costly from what i have found out. but i maybe wrong.

wouldnt it be easier to turbo the ka for drag? because i thought that the sr was mainly for drifting

Every engine is good for everything, but the RB and KA put out a little more torque thus helping out for the drag strip

The KA is better because of displacement over the SR, the RB25 would be my choice, just because the inline 6 is a better design than the I4.

We have a couple of customers running SR20 swaps at the drags.

1993 240SX HB Redtop SR20DET 3" downpipe and exhaust, SSautochrome mani, and 10 PSI resulted in a 13.6 on BFG drag radials.

1989 240SX Coupe Redtop SR20DET 3" downpipe and exhaust, resulted in a 14.0 on stock boost with some good street tires.

Both of these swaps were simply pulled from the clips and dropped in, stock piping and SMIC's with BOV's added. The biggest thing I see that keeps the SR20 from going faster is the gearing in the tranny, it's tall for drag racing.

i ran 13.2 with my sr.
3' downpipe
3'exhaust
test pipe
greeddy intercooler
hks cams
and stock boost.
My friend who has a bone stock sr20det in his 240 ran 14.1
so hyjynx dont say that a stock sr runs 15's because that is not the case. Maybe if the engine was running bad you'd see 15's but it should be better than that
