Nice setup. Nice Car ... You must over just over 20k in this built.

I am sure once you work out the tuning and get the boost up you will run in the 9's.

The plus is your 60ft looks much better.

Always a battle for turbo cars is building boost on the line.

the times a few post back are from the new turbo. never made a full pas on the old set up

well everyone the meth kit is for sale!
i never should have bought it, but i was under the impression i could make the power i wanted off pump gas and meth injection. well i cant, so ill just run low boost on pump gas and then race gas with high boost. i have near 1k in all the meth and things involved with it, metal for brackets, powder coating bracket, redoing the charge pipe. i know some of it i cant get back. all i want is 700 shipped!

I make enough power/boost on straight pump gas/meth to go 9.1 in a 3325lb car .... how much power/boost are you trying to make? I run up to about 17psi on pump/meth and above that go to c16

only 93 oct pump gas will let me do what 13-14lbs
93 oct and meth i can get 17lbs
race gas i get 20-22 lbs

whats the point of having meth if i need race gas to go mid 8s. i bought meth because i thought i woulldent need to use race gas.

Meth is good for more then just the octane though.... Race gas will give you the octane but will do nothing for cooling the charge. I run c16 and straight meth and it loves it!!!

Been 160mph at 3325lbs and that takes a bit of power with a 4 bolt ls on a factory casting head.

I have a nice 94 lt1 for sale Granted I wish I could afford an evo, but a nice AWD DSM will do for now lol. Amazing build btw, sounds very sinister with a v-8 and big turbo.
