The turbos are a custom set built by precision turbo. They will support around 1300-1400 per turbo. It has a dry direct port with about 150 shot to help spool and cool the air. We will hopefully run 35-40 pounds of boost when turned up to run a big number. Which should get us 2000+ rwhp. We didnt change the gear ratio in the trans. But I can turn this thing to 9000-9500 rpm so I plan on only using 1st through 4th gear.

Sick car. Maybe I missed it, but what engine management are you running?

Best of luck in the event!

Just so you know, the standing mile record was held by a Ford GT the last I checked. It went 250 something.



What made you guys go with a 4th gen vs something like a C6?
Also, what's your goal assuming all goes as planned?

256 or 257 for the ford gt but that was on a screwy timing setup.
