New best for Ninetres!!!! 18psi baby!!!!! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh yea. I went out to the WCHRA event at Famoso race way this weekend in Bakersfield and competed in an event for the first time!!!! I ran in the 10.5 Limited class. I was wayyy down on power for the class and wayyyy overweight lol. The class runs as fast as 8.60 @ 160mph. They limit turbo size to only 76mm 
How they imagine a 76mm car can compete with 550ci+ big block nitrous cars with -4 lines is beyond me!
Long story short ( long story will come later when I have more time to post lol). Best pass:
1.45 60'
6.10 1/8
9.49 @ 144.95
DA was dam near 4000 and temps were near 100*. My intake temps were over 145* but that is measured just before my meth nozzles. Poor ebay A2A intercooler lol.
PS-- I won my first elimination round with a 10.35 lolz!!!!!!!!! My opponent runs consistent 9.0s but he peddled the whole track spinning. I couldn't get my boost up on launch quick enough on the pro tree and left with ZERO boost. 1.98 60' lol and my turbo didn't wake up until 100+ feet out. The other car was AT LEAST 20 cars out on me but I ran him down and drove by him at 1000 feet. I still managed 142 mph some how!

Congrats. It's running right online with where I was for 18-19psi. The ST80 starts to choke out on the hotside around 20psi for me. Your DP flows a bit more though so you've got some room to play.

They didn't measure and I'm 400lbs overwieght for the class. Plus my car was the slowest in the class. Who cars if it was a 106 if I'm a 1/2 second slower than the rest......right? I will run a legal turbo next year.Interesting. I was going to call FI.com about that one. I'm might switch for next year. Who knows.

Wow....nicely done. 144 with that heavy of a car is some serious power. Glad that unit is working out. Let us know if you want to upgrade the hot side...we will get it taken care of.

I've got a 402ci LS2 with AFR225s and a 3.5" DP. I've cleaned up the exhaust some more (dropped the corsa cutout and when to a borla XR1 dump before rear with cutout) but haven't had time to get to the track to see if stays the same on 20psi. Hopefully i'll get out before August though.
