Default First APS TT system in the 9's!

Well after alot of work,time and money I have achieved my goal. I set out to build a 9 sec car that can hold up to track duty and can be driven to the store and meets with the ac and radio jamming Well tonight all the late nights and hard work paid off. After a little suspension tweak and taking the passanger seat out my car ran a 9.90@138 This is still at 12.5 psi ! I am happy with everything in this car and made a nice little video. Thanks to all the members on here who helped me and APS,LME and my Lethal Performance Crew! Couldnt have done this without them! I put more faster in the video as a inside joke at the shop

Nice run, and a bad *** car.

What is the deal with bouncing off the rev-limiter on the 1-2 shift? My car is doing the same damn thing.

Sorry few more questions..
Still on 4.10 gears? Did you weigh car again? Also didn't they kick you off don't you need a full cage now and medical and all that extra stuff for under 10.0??

Also hearing about a few guys with some problems with oil and stuff. Any problems at all with your kit? Local guy on our club has ordered the bigger kit and was wondering if I wanted to trade up snails. I think they are overkill for me even on my 408. I also think they would spool up quite a bit slower and want as much street powerband as I can get. I am very curious to see how muuch the small ones can do at higher boost. To see what is their limit .Did you install or get those high boost ducts yet?

congrats man!

this is with an auto, correct? I can't hear the sound on my work CPU thats why I ask. also was this on pump gas? I assume it was because of the little amount of boost.

how about a break down of your mods/setup.
