thats weight with me in the car, I'm no lightweight, but the car is still pretty heavy...

one last pic

 

Wow. Congrats!

 

ElCapo, just to clarify.. Enzo racing did the downpipe on mine and anthonys cars as part of the S475 turbo kit. his fabrication work is top notch, but downpipe and exhaust fabrication is not the kind of work his business primarily does. Enzo also did the mil spec wire harness and ecu tuning on my car.

 

Awesome true street car. Congrats.

WOW @ 3078lbs!!!

 

Enzo did an excellent job with my turbo manifold and downpipe and about 8 years ago he even did the roll cage in my car. I have sent some close friends there for tuning too and he always does the right thing. Hopefully I will be in the 9s soon, if not I am going to change my signature!!!!!

PS - No one would believe the amount of abuse I have taken since my daddy went 9's!!!!!!!!!!! I'm shocked Crispeed has not commented on here yet lol.

 

thanks. I am located in upstate ny... Real upstate like north of Syracuse. I am gonna be running the new Borg Warner 9180 with a Full-Race.com twin scroll manifold and I wanna do a complete 4" do and exhaust. I know plenty of people that can help me out but they are all back home in puerto rico and my car is here.

 

Anthony check post 16

damn 3K LBS, soon as I can make it down the track more than once, im putting in a bigger turbo lol

 

as i said on facebook roan great going, sure theres plenty more to come, get a cage in it

 

anthony- have you ever weighed your car?

 

its the seats roan! congrats

 

awesome car/run!

sick 60'

 

Congrats bro!! The car is running awesome. This is a real street car.

 

Nice Run!!!
I dont remember if you put a cage in the car?

If not it looks like a fayetteville nc car!!!!

 

Thanks again everybody. Gio it's definately the seats and harnesses

John, it's a fayetteville car all the way! lol

hopefully Atco will let me get more than one run in on the 22nd. I'm gonna see if enzo has some time to tune it for a little more boost next week. I know he's busy, but it's ok I'm not above begging lol

 

ports?

 

the car runs a half bridge motor.

 

A little late but, Congrats Roan on pulling that single digit pass. You worked hard for it and you deserve nothing but what you set yourself out to do!!!

 

just a little follow up... I went to Atco on the 22nd and was told by the tech guy that I'm getting kicked off the property if I go any faster than an 11.0 I decided to powershift the car for the first time with this trans... Trans shifts pretty well at 9K+ untill I missed 4th gear lol... I slamed on the brakes after the missed 4th gear shift in hopes of getting another "perfect" run.

anyway, the track didnt hook that well so the 60' and 1/8 et suffered a bit, but the car picked up 3 MPH in the 1/8th!!! this was on a 90% humidity day. I'm extremely happy with the car and think it definately has some quicker times in it once I stop missing shifts.

Thanks again for all the support everybody. this sunday I'm going back out to Island dragway to see if I can get some better passses.

heres the slip

 

Nice!
Good to finally see you running on track vs. wrenching.

 

Thanks Al, It's such a relief to be able to beat on the car and not break things every week. I'm going on 2 years with just oil and spark plug changes. I didn't have to touch anything on the car over the winter for the first winter in 8 years. I just charged the battery in spring and started driving/ racing again. no more broken trannys and diffs every 2 weeks.

it's finally reliable after all these years lol.

 

good to see you car is going strong... hopefully im going to the track sunday but looks like it's going to rain..

 

Congrats sick pass
