Made a couple test hits I took my car out Friday and yesterday for the first test runs of the year.After farting around on my first two runs we were able to get the car to do sub 1.23 60's with a best of 1.18.
We made 2 passes yesterday until the 94mm gave up the ghost 5.6 seconds into the run at 16.2 PSI.Incrementals.............
60 1.186
330 3.281
660 4.994
MPH 143.54
1000 6.482
1320 7.951
MPH 139.06
All I can say is YEE ******* HAW what a blast,I went home with a smile on my face despite the broken turbo.It's going back to PTE today to be made into a 106mm billet wheel.In the meantime the 114mm billet wheel turbo I already have is going to be put to the test.
W2W built a great car it leaves hard and as straight as an arrow.

Yep,on last years 10.5W 's that have 17 passes on them.I have a new set of 16x15 double beadlocks with the new 33/10.5W/16 that will be going on the car soon.I doubt the car will ever see a big tire again.
The 1.18 60 was a ride and my tuner thinks we can go sub 1.15's with more tinkering.
The best part of the weekend was my engine finally worked correctly and the water and oil stayed where they're supposed to stay instead of making a cappucino looking mixture in the dry sump tank.

PSJ car's raceweight is about 3080 lbs.I can take 60 lbs out of it pretty easily but havent got around to it yet.
The 94mm turbo is not repairable.The shaft broke right behind the compressor wheel and spit the shaft and exducer wheel out the downpipe.I wonder if any of the bracket racers running behind me got a flat...
The plan now is to add another wastegate and Procharger BOV per PTE's direction and bolt on the billet wheel 114mm.This car is going to fly according to my tuner,it's 60 footing better then some BBC TT that have went 6.80's and we havent even turned it up yet.

I went mid 12's about 5-6 years ago and then went 10.00's last year after not racing that whole time.. Its a huge time difference, but didn't seem that much faster to me since I have been driving 600+hp cars on the street for a while...
