Dayuuuum that launch was sweet on the video! I wish I had stayed a little longer to see it in person. Its amazing what your car runs with those parts in your sig Mike. For everyone else, you guys would really laugh knowing:

1. Mike's car was bought used a little over a year ago, around $10K
2. Mikes heads/cam were bought used from another MTI customer
3. Most of Mike's bolt-ons were bought used. He pieced together his own nitrous kit.
4. This is Mike's only car - his daily driver.

Talk about budget 9-seconds! That car has to be the cheapest 9-second car in the country.

Mikes an awesome tech, prolly one of the best in the nation when it comes to working on these cars. I have seen his work first hand on a many LT1 and LS1 cars, the guy is awesome, no other way to describe it. He treats customers cars at MTI like his own and gets details perfect, ever watch him put ona Borla, he wont let it leave his bay till the every thing is 100%. His Z28 is bad as sbecause he makes not much run really hard and gets the best out of any set up. Like Tony said, this his only car and he has a family so hes on a budget but can out run some big dollar set ups.

Very nice Mike.
If I may ask, how much timing you run, and approx AFR?

Keep up the good work.

Thanks
Charlie

That deserves respect! Congrats on the killer times. Just proves what knowledge and good tuning can accomplish

I'm gonna need a bigger boat. I was shooting for the Head/Cam stock bottom end record this summer. No way in hell I can run close to a 9.69! My car will be too heavy at 3600lbs.

Good run Mike. That was awesome!

A 250shot on top of a H/C package huh on a stock bottom end huh? This guy has brass *****. Simply incredible.
He also works for MTI so i'm sure he's not to worried about it

A 250 shot on a stock bottom is rediculous
