Woohoo i dipped into the high 10's. Ran a bunch of low 11's and 2 10.8's. Now just need to be more constistant and stay in the 10's, kinda hard with no two step. I was shocked my FD was 2730 with full interior a/c and crap and 2890 with me in it.
What HP or WHP were you running to get those numbers??? Also What type of tires?
I have 475rwhp@17psi and i was spiking 20psi. I am running ET streets(bias ply) that i got real cheap used
. The 10.86 was at 123mph with a 1.6 somthing(dont have the slip infront of me) 60'. I dont have much more room but if i had two step i could get off the line harder and maybe bring it down to like a 10.7. Im just glad it didnt break out of those 7 passes beating the crap out of it since i drove it there and home. Im happy where its at since i plan to do more suspension stuff and try some road course next year. Drag is cool and all but once you get to a certain point you want more power just to go faster since being consistant gets boring once you figured out the bugs and so does going in a straight line(my opinion).

Carefull with street tires since as many times i have been on the track(with my FC's and with my FD) all they want to do is spin and wheel hop. I would let you bum my other set of ets on my other wheels but there is a gash in the middle and i dont really feel safe using them(even though i did since i didnt know oops). The bias plys are so soft on launchs but they do break stuff since they hook so well, like on my 2nd ever pass on them i broke my diff. I upgraded to a t2 clutch type and have 7 good passes on it and it feels great. Also MIR knocked 3mph off my 1/4 speed since my 1st and only pass at Captiol(not the greatest track but my local) i ran a 11.1@126. Think my fastest at MIR was a 124.
Thanks, its pump and meth injection(my friends give me a hard time and say its not the same as pump lol), I was hoping to see more passes from your car
what blew and are you going to have it fixed in time for imports vs domestics?

When I was putting the car back together, I went the cheaper route and bought the journal bearing GT42 instead of the dual ball bearing which has the 360 thrust bearing and thicker/stronger shaft.

Any update Ernie? The 10th anny is coming to the show also,I.G.S is touching up a few bad spots on her and will be good to go.The brother-n-law is driving it down.

PS; turbo10th, congrats on all your 10-sec passes on pump/meth at our rental... you made it look easy*
Awesome to hear Ernie, looking forward to hearing the results! Your motor/build should easily take a few more psi reliably... tune it to 34psi for the big event, 5000+ fans in that annual event is worth it! ttyl...
