8.50 is a tough number for a car like mine IMO. I have been chatting about turbo reducers with friends and it sounds like there is a point of diminishing returns with them. Its not like you can slap a 76mm reducers on a 106 and run killer times. I'm hearing it makes more sense to run a turbo closer in size to the maximum allowed limit. I'm just starting to make a list of changes for next year and I will talk to Jose for my turbo selection.
I heard Tim has several of there rules in place because he didn't want the turbo guys walking into this class and cleaning house.

I'm sure Tim did have those reasons since it's the same problem other classes had and now their on a short track to make it more competitive. Look at the rule Tim did for the F1R in L10.5, your limited to certain cogs and pulley sizes and wont allow gear drives cause prochargers could do a sweep in that class as well.
I agree with FANTAZ28 about the twin 60's!
Anyway, I look forward to see what you come up with bro, i'm sure it'll be killer and should be alot of fun and glad more guys are coming out to support the WCHRA...

Soooooo twin 60mm inlets will allow for more power than a single 76 inlet? I know twins would be a bitch but I'd hate to spend all the money to upgrade my single, and enter all the races and still not be able to somewhat compete. They handicapped this class BIG TIME for the turbo cars. I'd like to shove it down their throat and wax the nitrous cars next year

haha you never know buddy, If you started wrecking shop on people they could be like you have to unhook all the spark plugs left side of your motor and add 1000lbs of weight.

Can you do me a favor and look into my best options for some twins with 60mm inlets. The class allows reducers so I can do some nasty 72s or something. Please let me know what brand and size twins will make the most power with a 60mm inlet. I only run 370 cubes and 9.1:1 compression.
Jose said the T6 GT88 would be the best single option with a 76mm inlet. I don't know much about that turbo but it didn't seem rated much higher than my ST80 with the race cover.
