Twin Turbo T/A vs S480 Turbo T/A vs SBC/nitrous 3rd gen formula With video footage Had some runs tonight, descriptions of the cars are in the video. I have limited info on the 3rd gen but I do know that it runs 10's. I didn't brake boost in either run, need to get on that.

I'm a sucker for a clean 3rd gen! Awesome runs. Looks like your running your setup on the leaner side, no? Saw it creep to 12.0 on the gauge towards the top of each gear. I'm assuming you run good fuel though...on pump gas, I wouldn't feel safe at anything over like 11.3 or so lol.

My buddy had a 6.0/S480 setup in a stalled auto that went 9.26 at 148 mph at 16-17 PSI, but he was on 100 octane unleaded pump. Good fuel is key on a turbo car, especially with a stock bottom end. Too bad we are shafted here in CT. Good fuel is tough to come by in these parts

Damn, those twins are making some steam on 13 PSI lol. And recalibrating is never a bad idea! I've done mine twice in 3K miles just for the hell of it.

Lucky bastard. We have plenty of 93 which I guess is ok at best. Theres one station that sells the 100 octane but it's a good 35 minute drive all down backroads. I'm just going to hope the meth injection works out good for me.
