Hopefully I can park my car close enough to yours and some power just leaches over to my car.

very Impressive Indeed
Thanks guys!
Went to the track tonight. It was a lot cooler out and the track didn't hook nearly as well as it did last Sunday. I had all intensions of upping the boost alittle but after not being able to 60' the car I was thinking maybe I wouldn't and just call it a night. Well it was getting late and I figured I give it one last try with alittle more boost. Set it on 23lbs and didn't end up with a bad run. I would have like to see a better 60' but for the track condition it was every good. Anyway here the slip.
sweet mother of god
Holy cow. The number of guys getting somewhat near the 9s is really growing.
I think your starting to hit the sweet spot of your turbo. Your trap speed is picking up considerably. Very very nice.

This makes me happy. :-)
Wow Adam you kick major ---. Looks like you spun a little and hit the Rev limiter off the line, I bet you would be really close to the 9s if you could get it to stick. Great work and the car sounds as awesome as it looks!
All I can say is that thing hits hard.

When does that turbo hit full boost? What are the engine revs after shifting? It just sounds like it's bogging a bit after shifts, then comes back into power. Maybe that helps with traction, but it also might be lost time.
Nice to see your patience and hard work paying off. This is the kind of results I would wish for anyone building one of these cars! (not the specific ET or MPH, but the Great success)
What was you mph with the cooler air Before adding the extra boost, If you don't mind me asking?

Thanks Mike! mix of 93 and 112 so it was around 105
Thanks! but its going to take alot more boost and a better 60' to get neat the 9s
Thanks Alan! that the plan. lol
I will have to look at that log. But the car does not really bog bad unless i shift at a lower rpm.
Thanks Im having alot of fun with the car finally, The run before that one was on 19lbs and it went 11.00 @ 127.98
That last run i had the lowest tire pressure of the night. They were set at 8lbs and that was my best 60 of the night. Im a moron and forgot all 7 set sitting on my work bench I need to start making a check list cause i always for get something or a few things. LOL
Congrats Adam! that thing is a beast!
