We made some good progress this weekend.... With a couple minor tuning tweeks we ended up running 8.54@169.25 1.43' 3460lbs race weight at only 20lbs of boost... We learned a few things and will be making some little changes before the next race in 3 weeks... Stay tuned for video!

Thanks guys!
I want to see how fast we can go with this small 80mm reducer housing at 3460lbs on a DOT tire as this is the configuration I need to race in... once we get this sorted out, I will put the full size turbo housing on, 29.5W and wheelie bars along with pulling out the 80lbs of ballasts we are carrying around...
Stay tuned!!!

My 25.5 Turbo Firebird buildup (lots of photos!) Great looking pics. Especially the one of the burnout. Your car is awesome and I'm sure that you can run in the 7's in the cool fall air. I'm waiting on the video too.
