Steve is one of those few guys who knew what he wanted from day one. He called and told me he wated low 8's in 1/4. Asked what I could do. I told him I could give him low 8's and then some. There were some trials and hiccups thought the build that were worked through with great results.

All I can say is I am glad to have been given the opprotunity to be a part of this car.
Oh and Steve, the PS bracket will be heading your way soon. It is a street car after all .

What size A/W intercooler are you guys running? It isn't the one originally pictured in the box in the build thread that arrived from KY Turbo is it? That seems undersized?

Props to running in the 7's on E85! Gotta love $2.25/gallon race fuel

Custom Chiseled 2000hp. The first one had some problems so Josh had one custom made by Chiseled and to me at no extra charge.

Launch (1st stage) 3.5 psi on the gate is getting us to 8 psi of boost on the launch. 1st stage with no delay set at 26 psi on the gate get's us to 24.5 psi of boost. 2nd stage coming in 1.5 sec out has 28 psi on the gate making 26.1 psi of boost. I think that we can bring the boost in a little sooner and I got a couple little tricks I want to try with the timing below 7K RPM to smooth out the graphs. We also need to come up with a cold air intake as the air is currently being picked up dead center behind the radiator.

What is the ramp rate on the 1st stage? If you wanna send over the log file I'll make some recommendations.

What if you go and fab an intake like a stock lid but larger ontop of the radiator fairly wide and run some pipes to the inlet of the turbos. That will bring in cold air and with the short distance it shouldnt restrict air intake too much if at all. Just an idea for colder air!

Thats the single reason I dont like turbos setup like that. A 4" donut would work in that tight spot to get the inlets turned forward and use 4" tubing to the front of the car.

I made 9 passes trying to dial in the 60'. One of the passes in the video is of a friend of mine's Firebird.

Here is the video

I'll look tomorrow and let you know. I dont think I had any ramp in it at the end of the night. Just going from the launch boost to the first stage is enough ramp.
