Default Forced Induction Bracket Racing?

do any of you guys bracket race your turbo or procharged ls1s?

if so, what would be the BEST set up for bracket racing?

bracket racing with a turbo will be very hard...

a S/C will be a better choice for bracket racing...

I bracket race mine occasionally and have had pretty good luck, usually stays within a few hundreths if I do my part and it hooks everytime.

I never tried bracket racing a turbo car but getting a consistant launch would be the key.

Turbos do look like they would be very tough to successfully bracket race. They fare much better heads up racing against other turbos.

I have always bracket raced my t/a... Have had very good luck with it when i'm not changing stuff left and right... Just take care of the blower belt and she'll be pretty consistant within a few hundreths like KP said. Hell, I'm a bracket race mine and she'll go in the 9s...

Have fun,

J
