congrats!!!I am just curious, it says you are running 35 psi (from that big *** turbo) but it says you only have 540 at the wheels with the NOS. Is this a misprint? I would have thought at 35 psi you would have around 640 at the wheels. Either way its a dope ride. Take care

Hey Marko!
Whenever they are doing magazine articles on the car you're supposed to lie about the power and boost level you're running!
Try this one out for instance>> When I did my 9.20 run I was only making about 650RWHP at 17 psi with nitrous assist to 10 psi and I drove it to the track with the A/C running!
Now that's more like what you would read in Turbo.
Marko when are you gonna get me a sweet turbo like the one you showed me!

The article has a little bit of screwups here and there, we have run as high as 35 psi and we ran 50 NOS, back then (4months ago) that was the little P-trim .96 on centre housing. That thing was overworked.

After that I changed turbo's three times and three different headers to get one that I liked which is the one Crispeed likes.
There's only 2 of those turbo's left, Chris you gotta let me know

I like that part about how I won "the Belt".

That was funny, thats when I earned the handle:
"the big swinging dick of the north"

I'm gonna put that in my sig :p
