Awesome numbers Rob! That is going to be one hell of a ride. How did you guys set up the meth, when does it come on? Only WOT at higher boost or is it on more often?

I hope I can make it over this weekend, I am not sure yet.

We got the meth set at about 1lb with a ramp rate of 5, reason we have it coming on early is to help with the delay coming from the tank in the spare tire area.

I'm planning a similar build and I was just wondering the total cost of this build? Very very nice and detailed build by the way.

Awesome build!

You won't be disappointed with the F1A.

I recently upgraded from a puny D1SC to an F1A.

I'm running 10* less timing this year, a much more rich AFR, picked up 3.5psi over the D1SC, and making a touch more power. LOTS of room left in my tune and we made 800rwhp/777rwtq.

Got any dyno graphs?
