Quick question, how the hell do you trap 145 on pump gas, and with that et? Any dyno numbers? What kind of suspension? Very curious.

My guess would be big HP, roll off the line. Not the first turbo car I've seen do it.

I used to be all into the GN scene, so I know the procedure for "rolling off the line", but 145 on pump gas??? To roll off the line and still trap 145 you are pushing MAJOR boost, and on 93 octane that's not going to happen more than once or twice. That's why I was curious. I don't want to fly the BS flag just yet, and that is why I asked for details. Still waiting.

He'd have to be in the 7.5-8.0:1 range compression wise and use some form of intercooling to have a chance at that mph

His car might weigh 2800 pounds too.

INSANE mph congrats!!!

Need details on the combo please

Not that I don't believe you, but ......Timeslip? Video? This will help quell all the naysayers.
If its this easy to get in the 10 second club, then I just ran 10.01@167

Intmd8 is running some thing like 138MPH on DRs in his six speed LT1, full weight with ac all in the car, I'm sure on race gas though. I find this thread a little on the hard side to believe, like every one else I'd like to see pics and a time slip.

Yah Intmd8 has gone over 138mph on drag radials with 110. With a 357ci. I'm not doubting that it's possible but since you are a newbie provide us with a slip or someone who we know as a reference.

The thing is, from what I have seen most people arent made of money and dont want to risk their motor running it on pump 93 ona good amount of boost at the track.
