For 2010......... We had a great year. We got the car together kinda late in the year, but made some progress. We did make to the LSX Shootout like we wanted to and although had some issue's, it was a great time for us. For 2010, the T/A is going on a diet, getting the cage upgrade(8.50cert), and get this thing flying like we know it will do. The only thing really left to do to the car is add a drag brake setup. We ARE keeping the A/C and Heat in this vehicle as well. BUT everything else will be going that can. We are also going to be running in the NMRA True Street Class when the race's are near by.This will be mainly for fun. We probably will not be as competitive as alot of the other car's, but it will be fun maxing out the EZ94mm billet impeller turbo. My original goal for the car was 8.50's, but have since set our goals a little higher, mainly due to the fact that the car has run 161mph with only 23psi, and 10.5A/F and only 19deg. of timing on C16. We would like to thank LWA( Lamar Walden Automotive) for the great service and workmanship and engine building skill's and advice on our 427LSX Motor.Josh@ Kentucky Turbo&Performance for the awesome turbo kit, and for being a great guy to boot! Glenn McCreary for the great TH400, and Scott@ Driveline Solutions for the great deal on the 9in, rear-end assy, and to all my friends that have helped us along the way.
We look forward to a great 2010 year of racing and having a great time with friends!

We are going to push this turbo to the limits. As said before we think with a good 60ft. I can get a 8.99 on wastegate(13-15psi.)@ 4045lbs race weight.
We are looking to get the car to 3800lbs, alittle less if possible. We do not want to go crazy on the weight reduction though. At full tilt we believe we can go 8 teens, maybe a little quicker @ 3800lbs. Only time will tell though?

You should be able to get it down lower than that weight wise. Getting the 60 down will kind of kill the MPH, but it will definetly haul either way. I think a realistic weight goal would be around 3550 raceweight with it still looking nice. With an 8.50 cert cage I wouldn't be worried too much about cutting on things. That's a lot of bars to keep you safe.
