What will it take to beat T56's time??? Anyone have their own goal of beating Joe and Amber's 8.935? 
my old setup was a H/C/Nitrous 346ci. it went 6.3 in the 1/8 mile.
My new setup is about 6 months from being complete, but wonder what it'll take to beat their time?
Anyone else around planing on building a fast 6 speed setup?

Your car should be fast, but will it still be a street car?
Just wondering.
Did you end up going with Raymac or did you decide to ship it to Erik?
Amber and Joe's car is a high reving NA M6 car...aren't you a PA'ed M6?

well 6.3 is like a high 9 or 10.0 on a 6 speed
5.8 are around a 9.0
so plan on going 70's at minumum to beat them...still wont have bragging rights since they are doing it n/a and your doing it with boost
better have lots of moeny in sus/and 2 step/rear/ds to get a 6 speed with boost to cut a great 60' and keep it going

i'd like to see other LSx cars try and go fast rowing gears though.

I dont get it, why would a synchrod tranny be smaller i guess i just dont know what a powershifted trans is. I dont see how you could shift any faster if you didnt have synchros. Some one please explain.

S.W. in Austin just ran 8.73 @ 170 mph (1.43 60') in a 6-speed Supra, this past week. Pretty amazing stuff for an inline 6-cylinder with a STOCK tranny and rearend.
