13.21 1/4 mile time?

So I was cruising cardomain.com (hey they have some good pictures and its almost 2:30am here

) anyways I stumbled across this guys page http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2059901 Is this somebody on here?

The guy lists a K&N filter, "Predator chip performance upgrades," 4in exhaust

I'm wondering if his "predator chip" is the diablo sport extreme power puck or the Dr Performance chip or....

Just wondering what he was doing to run 33psi. Dragtimes.com has a guy with a gde tune @ 25psi and he ran a 16.46. Maybe I'm just being skeptical but I just wouldn't think the extra 8psi from a chip would net you 3+ seconds in the 1/4 mile. But I am new to this diesel thing

Running 33" tires and a 3" crap lift doesn't help your 1/4 mile times. So I don't believe it.

Jinstall is the only guy I would take serious about 1/4 mile times. (he's on here too)

Heck, he even raced his KJ on the Nürnburgring in Germany so...he should know.

Sidenote..who cares...our CRD will never be the fastest JEEP on the block anyway.

I don't know...some of those 0-60 times people have posted with the GDE HOT tune are pretty impressive. I'd say the only Jeep that could smoke a HOT tuned KJ CRD would be the WK SRT-8.

There's no way his CRD did 13.2 in the quarter. Maybe he meant 1/8th? :ROTFL:

Check my sig for the Hot Tune Drag Times.

Someone has reported a faster time with the turbo upgrade...about 9+ in the 1/8th at 75mph...verified GDE Turbo Upgrade

13.2?...skeptical at best...that would put him at ~102+mph

GDE reports about a 10 second 0-60 time with there hot tune. This is about 2 seconds faster than there reported stock times wich is a good increase. But to be at a low 13 in the quarter I would think you'd have to be at about half that. I'm sure the extra torque helps with the taller gears up top but sill just don't see it.

64.8mph @ 10.39 seconds in the 1/8 mile...definitely 0-60 under 10 seconds in a 4540# vehicle plus a 225# driver

You can do better come on! Remove everything inside, the spare wheel ,the A/C pump..Use drag slick and don't foget to call your spouse to tell her 'How much she's pretty' before you get back home :mrgreen:

Unless he's running a butt-load of propane, no way can you get that 2 ton rig down the strip that fast with factory injectors. It's going to need 350hp at the wheels.

A stock 3.7 V6 KJ does better then that,you guy's are slow.

You can beat all of us for cheap! Just run on nitrous! Just one run with your big donuts! :mrgreen:

We will tow you back home with our 'SLOW' vegetal oil burner after your one and last run :ROTFL:

Well the 0-60 numbers I saw from a user with the HOT tune was in the 7.5-8.0 second range. That is just about as fast as my old Mustang GT. So yes... the CRD can be a very fast SUV.

When we had two KJs at the same time a few years ago, I did not feel like the gas KJ was faster at all. The 3.7L is all top end, and obviously the CRD is all bottom end. It made for a pretty close race.

Now, with the GDE tune and some other things, I'm certain the CRD would destroy the gas version. This is a QUICK ride now, esp. considering it weighs 2.5 tons and is four wheel drive. A month or two ago, I ran with a V8 80s model Camaro. He got so mad that he couldn't pass me that he flipped me off. :mrgreen:

I got my stop watch, and I'll be testing soon.

Just remember that the speedo is off if you use a stopwatch.

i dont think it could run 13's with those tires on it and the lift kit, and why would propane make it any faster? and how much boost do our turbos put out stock?

CATCRD · **Posted:** Thu Jul 29, 2010 5:29 pm

The CRD's 60ft time will always be hampered by turbo lag, so it'll never make an impressive dragster on paper. Maybe the GDE turbo kit reduces that lag.

Put it in fulltime hold down the brake and spool up the turbo... NO LAG!

It will be a quick 0-60 but that is it. It needs a lot more HP to pull those MPH.

MY SRT8 was running 587HP at the wheels and ran a 11.4(before programing was available)
It ran 13 flat when it was stock with a cold air and exhaust.

I have to say Nope on a 13 sec CRD... Maybe with a Cummins swap.

ye you def. have to load up the turbo and it wont have the lag off the line, i raced my friends mini cooper s the other day and beat him but his launch was terrible because he doesnt know how to launch a manual, but i did hear his tires squeal shifting to second :ROTFL:
