Not yet. It's still a work in progress. Shooting for 1000rwhp for bragging rights, but back it down to 600-800whp range on the streets.

Pending sale for the clutch and flywheel... $500 for the pair.
If the guy backs out they will still be available.

I can't even get ahold of the little guy since his phone's disconnected. Like right now I need an aluminum plate welded to the back of my diff cover, but I've got no way to contact him

Got ahold of him and he knocked it out. Did an amazing job as always. Him, Travis Nichols (use to have a yellow mr2) and Caleb Nichols (red s15 at Neukins shop now getting a v-mount and turbo) came over to mi casa after I picked up the diff cover to check out the 7, and Travis made a quick idle vid on his iphone and posted it on youtube:

Your reaction time plays no role in the ET.
They don't start the clock until you roll off the second beam.

Also, 1.9 short time is pretty respectable for all season tires.
With your 1/8 mile stats I would expect it to run mid to high 12s.

Well we showed up late and got rained out at 730 so I only got to run twice... First time on the track. First run is listed, launched too low but hooked. Second run I launched too high and smoked the tires.

Reaction-- .76 haha
60ft-- 2.1
1/8th ET-- 9.2-- 77.6mph
1/4 ET-- 14.2-- 97.7mph

I am satisfied for now... but it made it better since my crap talking 355 camaro step brother only ran a 15.8 . Ha
