Congrats Zinx. I was home for 1 week in May and only managed a pathetic 11.2 @ 132mph because on my second pass I ruptured my right rear break line and took out my axle. I think the cobra cradle rubbed the break line on the launch because I pulled the front left wheel off of the ground. It was sick.
I thought I was the only one trapping over 130 mph and still in the 11's.
What you clocking at the 1/8th in mph??

congrats zinx. cant wait to see what you do with better traction and a perfect pass. you think with better suspension and more boost you can get below 10.5? and it looks like another certain red FD in MO is gonna have to step their game up.
and damn, i need to make it down a strip and see what mine's got in it. and then im gonna need the driver mod.

I ran the same times with that turbo on the same boost but damaged the turbo shortly after, I'm really curious to see what times you can get out of that turbo on 30psi!

Funny we almost identical everything. I ran the same boost 1.6 bar, same 1/8th mph 103, almost same et 11.3 and same 1/4 mile mph 131.9
I had 478 rwhp at 1.2 bar but tuned to 1.6 at the strip so don't know what numbers I was pushing at the time got 11.3 @ 131.9
car with me weighs 3042 pounds and was running a t51r turbo on an extended port. Can't get better than 1.9 60ft with MT drag radials so going to change to something else maybe MT ET.
Zinx how do you cut 1.5 60ft on street tyres???

No no, sk8world asked me what tires were on the front and i responded with my street tires. I run a 26 x 10.5 - 16 ET street on stock rims on the back at the strip.

A 1.5 60ft on street tires is amazing, there are guys out there that can't cut that with ET Streets! lol
