How much boost does the car have when she leaves the line?
Thanks
His ain't so bad
My turbo 2v went 7.2 8th with a 1.8 60ft.

Ended up with a 10.8 quarter mile.

I probably could have gotten it to around 10psi. But I was anxious just to go and hit 10s and not break anything, but it didn't happen Oh well, next year it will. Thanks for the kind words man!

No problem man.. It's cars like yours that make me want to go Turbo. Imagine for a second a 402ci LS2 with trickflow heads and a 78mm-80mm turbo. I am putting down 630rwhp right now with a little spray. If I was turbo I could probably get around 800-1000rwhp from this thing..

Going turbo was the best thing I have done for this car. I had a tiny Vortech on it last year and going to turbo changed the car substantially. I'm going to see if I can get ~700rwhp out of it next year on its stock heads
