she improves to a 14.4 only got 2 runs. on the 14.4 run the air flow meter came off the hose near the end of the run and shut the car off(car took a nose dive). that run was a decent run until that problem.. the saga continues.. so far she is doing great..

finally had a chance to fix the boost leak. car dynoed 280rwhp@9psi of boost. anything over 9 psi and the car would lean out way to much. so i kept it at 9lbs. later we went to our local race track, Sierra ran 13.0@104mph with a 1.7 60ft mark. on the 13.0 run the car had a clutch slipping issue, other wise she would have ran 12's. car is still on stock ecu..

Hey Ito, Good job getting the car where it is, also your daughter seems to learn fast the fundamentals of drag racing

If you don't mind me asking, is this engine stock port and running stock turbo? Those are pretty good numbers if so!!
