Re: 8.62 @156. with F1R Procharger A procharger atop the boosted list... That's what I'm talkin about 
Congrats on the wickedly fast times 427. I'm really interested to see pictures of your setup, particularly the blower/intercooler setup. I can't believe a Vert is able to take that much torque! Congrats on the new best.

Re: 8.62 @156. with F1R Procharger I've heard that the chassis had forgone a lot of work to take that kind of power. What exactly was done to it?.....details? I also have a vert but I sometimes wish I had a t-top or hardtop for making big power. This just puts new motivation in me for the car.
One more question, with all those mods and it being a vert, is that thing stripped inside to get it to that low a weight. I know that Rob Raymer's turbo car is about 4k lbs. How did they get the weight down so low?

Congrats Ron and Wheel to Wheel.

Re: 8.62 @156. with F1R Procharger You've got the aftercooler in the back seat? Absolutely insane! I would think having all that piping would make the blower take forever to build boost. You must have the procharger pullied up like a ****! Who fabricated the intake and piping? It's truely impressive. Got any pics of the blower itself?
Damn nice setup!

Re: 8.62 @156. with F1R Procharger And some people think the catalytic converter hump in the passenger side foot well is a pain.
