Went to midnight madness tonight and ripped an 8.35 @ 89+mph 2.05 60' on pure street radials (not Drag Radials). According to all who spoke up, and with what is posted on the timeslips page, I just moved into 3rd place in the 1/8th in this catagory in a Turbo Dodge, passing Kevin Davis' 8.39 in his 2.4 16V bad to the bone Daytona!! I told you I would get you Kevin! Ha Ha :thumb:

Thanks! No Dr's, just cheap 300 treadwear regular radials. Not sure who actually makes them. They have NV 50 wrote on them.

Nice dude, good job.

Thanks, I'm slowly getting the tune dialed in. The SC6152 turbo is really starting to move some air in the mid 20 psi range. I upped the boost about 1 psi maybe 2 and went a touch slower, and the engine felt a little flat up top. So I kept the psi the same for the next pass but gave the engine a touch more fuel and it picked back up some. I need to get a wide band so I can data log some runs, and see what's really going on.

Very nice. You are scooting along for sure. I agree that this fall you will be flying. Although I think you might find the limit of your tires.

Iam getting close to the limit of the tires! I still have a 4th stage of boost to activate for the middle of 2nd gear and all of 3rd gear. If I do run any quicker it will have to be from mostly a harder top end charge.

That would be the easy way out! I want #1 for the known street tire ET for a Turbo Dodge. With some sticky tires I would be hunting for the 6's. Believe it or not, with the way I have my boost staged, the tires are spinning very little!!! :thumb:

That Iam considering and will probably do. Along with fabbing up the sway bar traction bar mod to hopefully make the tires scratch harder.
