Oh also weighed the car
Street wheels/tires and a full tank(filled then got on scale)

2920lbs

I will weigh it at the track on the slicks/skinny setup with less fuel to see raceweight.

So I was feeling pretty manly today and tried to do a pull on high boost.....ummmmm yeah made around 13psi(this was in 2nd gear) and it was scary as all hell. Took all my ***** to keep in it as it was spinning and walking around a little. Well it is safe to say this was a little much for the street. I will try 10lbs and I think that will be about the highest I am comfortable with on the street wheel/tire setup

Grabbed a few pics today while enjoying what could be the last cruise of the year as it has already snowed here.

looks awesome. It would be hard to put into words how hard that car must pull on medium/high boost.
