Actually parting it out is the only way to recover anything out of one of these..

Just my personal thought, car seems to run good at 10.5-10.6. When I played with leaner and richer A/F's on the dyno there wasn't alot of power difference between the 10.5 and 12:1 ratios, none worth chasing in my experiences.

Never got to do any real back to back testing on the track with this, although I will say timing made more of a difference then tweeking the VE or PE Enrichment/boost tables for performance.
a/f makes a big difference for me, timing not so much. Takes some experimenting but leaning it out picks mine up a bunch.

Not yet, was going to go to Bowling Green yesterday, car is all loaded up but I woke up with a 102* fever. An early Christmas present from the kids I guess Figured instead of going racing and ending up with pneumonia I'd wait a week or so.

I pulled a little weight out of it, pass seat, wipers and a few other small things plus put the slicks back on since they are taller then the DRs and will help the top end a little.

It might go a 9.0x if I can get some really good weather, which is around sea level in these parts.

I have a turbo, in my Audi and Durramax pickup

No, I'm going to act my age and pick up a C6 Z06, clown shoe or something. I'm just bored with the whole racing thing, no real street scene, no close 1/4 mile tracks and I'm just not having any fun anymore.

Tell your friends, you couldnt build the car for twice the price in parts only.

Will probably end up parting it out, that would be a shame, but nothing is selling these days..

Tell me about it

Even selling parts is like pulling teeth.

I should just wait around until inflation hits, then it will be worth 100K
