Drag/Acceleration Kia Stinger 1/4 Mile Times

[Tonkabob]

These pulls were done after an hour drive at 75mph on the interstate getting home from work. I don't have a way to see transmission temp

Trans was warm then. If you sit in the drag line for over an hour it may drop below 200.
Were you getting full power cut or just a bit sluggish?

Seems to get full power once it gets over 8-10mph using launch control. After that it takes off. Watching logs it would go 0,3,3,0,3,6,8,8 mph and then go. Now it is closer to 0,3,3,7,10 mph

Congrats! That 60 foot time is as fast or faster than stock and some box tuned GTs.

My car is scheduled to be inspected for the repaint on Friday , so if it clears Kia’s inspection, I’m hitting Atco Raceway in the evening to take advantage of some of this excellent race weather.

Perfect racing weather around the USA. Hope we see some good track times coming in. We'll have our Stinger at Shift Sector trying to hang with the big boys doing 1/2 mile racing.

Made it to an 1/8th mile track after work today. Car was heat soaked after an hour drive and sat for 45 minutes and still showed 120-130 iats. Once in 4th it'd go full boost and start picking up speed. Was only logging 4.7 and 4.8 0-60s vs street 4.3s. Need to go to a 1/4 mile track if i have time this year.

Excellent, cant wait to see how it does. I noticed the car is faster if you shift right at 6k, this way it always stays at the sweet spot of the powerband.

Just ran a 12.08 in my AWD. Ran 12.02 twice, but slope was 1.09 so not valid. (1.0 is max). True dragy is not official but pretty safe to say I'll take the top AWD spot when the strip opens back up. Also my strip had a significant turn so pretty sure I can hit 11s.
Tork beta tune, ultimate performance FMIC, JT intake, custom catback with flowmaster DBX mufflers.

Very nice and congrats on quickest AWD and breaking into the 3s to 60.
Were those runs with launch control on or off?

You can probably hit 11s on 1/8-1/4 tank of gas, and just pulling out headrests & the spare tire.

Thanks. I did use LC and I did have the 1/8 to 1/4 tank but had the spare tire in. I think taking the turn out of my track will help alot.
I just noticed on the 12.02 run log i lifted at 113-114 mph and the 1/4 ended at 117.

So far people that ran dragy at the strip are spot on for ET or slightly slower which is a good sign. Dragy trap used to run higher, not sure if they fixed that.

Finally hit 12's today. Perfect weather for the twins.

AWD GT1
Launch control
Mods- K&N intake, muffler delete
1/4 tank of 93
Mid to high 40's maybe low 50's

Same set up when I ran in July but it was low 80's, I ran a 13.3 then. I'm so excited I broke into the 12's!

To clarify for all, this was done on 91 octane / E85 mix, not 93.
