I hate to say it but most 4WD cars make pretty poor drag cars... the only way to get a GT4 going hard at the start is to do a 3500-4000rpm clutch dump... obviously this is not very clutch friendly and would put quite a lot of strain on the gearbox & driveshaft/s...
According to most people I have spoken to about GT4's say you would need to be doing quite a bit of work to get 200+kw at all 4...
To get to 200+ from what I gather you would need the following level of hardware at minimum: (this is what was / am considering)
-Twin plate clutch
-Garrett GT30+ (maybe GT35...) and external wastegate etc. to go with
-Large FMC
-Forgies
-Head job
-ARP head studs / bolts etc.
-HKS metal head gasket
-Full Aussie exhaust system (i.e. dump pipe back)
-New ECU (Haltech? MoTeC?)
-Strengthened gearbox (cryogen?)
Should be able to run 20psi constantly and 30+ on the track with this type of setup and even then from what I hear its still unlikely that you would break 200kw at all 4...
You would prob be looking at 15-20K worth of mods to get 200+
Actually I would like to know of anyone that has gotten 200+ in a GT4 with street legal hardware... Seriously!
