What intercooler are you running again? Treadstone or eBay?
Also you are running stock PCM with an injector box?
What rpm are you crossing the line at?

I am currently running the stock PCM but I wont make another pass down the track at this power level with the stock junk. I'm just holding out for the MegaSquirt3X right now. I have high imp 80# inj so no driver box.
7250 ish RPM at the finish line.

Intercooler is custom from Speed Inc, I believe. I bought used NIB. My understanding is that it has a Bell core 24X12X6. It's as big as you can fit under the bumper support.

Any idea where those injectors are at duty cycle wise? Figure you must be making some serious power, guessing 1000 rwhp or so at that weight?

I been in contact with Matt Cramer daily trying to iron the details. Never done one. We are going to do the first one on BonnarLS1's car. It is a simple, straight forward, NA application. Should give us a good A to B comparison. MS3 was released but sold out in like 12 hours. The MS3X board is not yet available for consumption from what I have understood.

More details please..
Turbo 350..what gears, what make and stall details?
Trans brake? Two step?
What suspension mods done to car..shocks, front and rear sways,springs,torque arm..
What boost controller, any boost ramping?
What fuel octane..alc/meth? race or pump gas.
What tires.
Congrats on the time. I will be super happy to hit a 9.xx even 9.99 with my car this season.
So your track is pretty lax.Or do you have a full legal cage and all the other required stuff, parachute,etc.

FTI Torque Converter - Purchased at the same time as the transmission. It has been thru several different motor configurations. Greg at FTI is the The Man. He has restalled it several times and it's due for another restall. He takes great care of me as I have helped him corner the converter market in this area. It is stalling to about 5200 RPM which is ok but the shift extension is only at about 400 rpm. Definetly a couple MPH left in the converter.
2 Step - Lingenfelter LNC-003 set at 3600 RPM. Builds about 6-7 psi on launch. No timing modifications currently in use.
Boost Controller - AMS500 with CO2. 10# of CO2 on the gate at launch ramped over 4 tenths to 31# at full (19#) boost. I think that the fact that I need 31# on the back of the gate to build 19# of boost tells me that I have too much back pressure. I think that I would benefit from a larger backhousing.
Fuel - 93 octane up to 15 psi. For these passes I was on Maximal 116. It's mostly for some peace of mind. No meth. 17* of timing.
Suspension Front - QA1 "R" front shocks and the 275 springs. BMR Turbo Kmember, stock A Arms and no sway bar.
Suspension Rear - Jegster adj lower control arms, Jegster adj torque arm, BMR adj panhard, Eibach stiff springs, Comp Engineering 3 way adjustables in the rear and a S60 rear with 3.54:1 gears and a TruTrac.
Tires - Mickey Thompson 325/50/15's Drag Radials at 19psi (I think). Been a while since I checked the tire pressure.

Safety Equipment - Lap belt and helmet. This is one of the things that I am changing. The track is lax but not this lax. I get special treatment but they break my ***** every chance that they get. I am going to do a roll bar to start and see how it goes.
