I got 4 passes in. The delays were all towards the end of the night. Next time you guys come out, swing by and say hello. I always pit right up front next to the stagging lanes.

TH350 w/ RMVB and transbrake that only half works

. Steel drive shaft into a S60 rear with 3.73 gears. Running a 165/15 on a 15x3 in the front and a MT Drag radial 325/50/15 in the rear on a 15X10, Pro Stars. Up front I have a turbo kmember with stock a-arms and QA1-R single adjustables. I believe I'm running the 275 springs. In the back I am running the Comp Eng 3 way adjustables in the middle setting and Eibach springs that I bought from SLP a few years back. There isn't much MPH left in this setup. I am going thru the traps at about 7200 RPM. I really dont want to spin 3rd gear that high so I will be switching to the 3.55's when I get some extra change.

No oil under the car so it must be ok.

Cars running great. Your car has run good even when it was a dead stock motor. Taking your time and sneaking up on it is the way to fly and at the rate your going 150 MPH is comming real soon.
When you go to the 3.5 gear I think its going to pull the MPH even better.

Congrats on putting together a simple combo that works great! Oh ya my Moroso speed calculator says its around 950HP===

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the video of all the other passes I made that night. First one is on 12-13 psi. Then 15 and finally about 16 psi on that last one.

All the way soft. I need to tighten them a bit. Last time out I tightened them up about half way and my first pass on low boost it came out beautifull. Second pass I turned up the boost a little and it shook the tires so hard that I thought that I broke an axle or sheared the lugs and fully expected to see one of my rear tires come rolling past me.

It was built 6/2007 and I daily drove the car for the first year and a half with the 408 and 400 shot. I'd say well over 100 passes on the transbrake.
