Built the car 5 years ago so don't remember all the fine details but a few are...

.020 overbore on the stock 109 block
Pistons were sized to match
COMP Cams .581-inch lift, 224 duration, 112 LSA solid-roller cam
Champion GN1 aluminum heads
Delphi 90-pound injectors
thicker braided-stainless fuel lines, and Weldon external fuel pump, set to 40 psi of fuel pressure
4-inch mandrel-bent intake tubing and K&N air filter.
A large PTE front mount air-to-air intercooler
ATR 1 5/8-inch stainless turbo headers
ATR 3-inch downpipe
2.5-inch mandrel-bent tubing and ATR Pitbull mufflers
70mm turbo (Precision)
Fast tuner
Mickey Thompson 28x11.5-inch drag slicks
4000 stall
Coolingmist methanol after turbo
AFR Cryogenic (before) intercooler spray

Part listing...may be off a bit here or there but is a good idea.

I have not been able to get 9' out of this car. Have been told it is possible but I guess the tune is not there even though it runs well. I expect in cooler weather with the recent additions made that it will do a low 10.
