ran my new PB tonight! finally in the nines! 
Stock ls2,ls6 intake,stock tb,truck manifold turbo kit with a 88mm precisson. Th400 3500 stall,rmvb braked,9inch 3.40 gears, hoosier 325 drag radails. Full bmr suspension.
Decided to fill my weekend cruiser up and head to the track . First pass out on my low boost setting of 11-12 pounds. First time in the nines! It wheelied pretty hard out he hole so I let off, then I even let off before the finish line sine I was unfamiler with the track.. I turned the boost up and couldn't get it to hook up on the next two runs. Ran 10.1 and 9.9. Car felt strong! I know I got a 9.5 as it sits now and a 9.4 with 2 more pounds of boost. I'm alos looseing up my convertor some to hlp my 60's.
Anyways thanks kyle at bmr for giving me pointers on suspension setup and seling and me the best suspension parts there is. and thanks jeremy formato for all the tuning help.

How much do you think the stock longblock will hold and for how long?
I'm not as familiar with the turbo side of things... but I would agree and say a looser converter would help. Most cars I see running your ETs are running high 1.2s- low 1.3s. Heck, my 11 sec car goes 1.4s. I'm running a FTI 4200 stall. How much boost are you building at the line?

Thanks man, I'm peaking 13.8 according to my logs, and 4.5 on my transbrake. Also my stall is a 3800 but with his new turbo (pt88) I can't get pass 3200.
I'm out of injector right now, I only have 80lb at 43.5 injectors running on 75 psi. With e85 they max out right ovr 800whp.
If I had more injector I would just push it till something gives. I'm. Sure I'm close o the limits now though.
They say above 800rwhp you start pushing water,but I retorque my heads evry few times out. Guess is helping. Also ya, if my convertor was a 4200 like yours I would love life. I just want big wheelies off the line! Ain't nothing better than dragging bumpers

I just changed out my tc78, that tc78 was a trooper though. Just it didn't make good power ,I think 574 at 13lbs, where this new pt88 made 720. I went 6.30's at 121 on my tc78,just never a good 1/4 mile time. The tc78 was at full boost before the 60' foot mark. The pt88 is laggyer but man, it screams aboe 10 lbs of boost. Also the tc78 choked the exhaust, its a big difference with a bigger frame biger exhaust turbine.
