I don't think he has been back yet, not quite sure though.

I hope so, I guess after looking at the logs I am only at 9.2#'s until I hit third gear about 30-40' before the traps of the 1/8th. SO not bad I guess for 9#'s.

The car is a whole lot better with the 3.5 gear so I know that the times will be a ton better.

This.

I am awaiting my suspension parts from MWC. After those get in I am going to dial the boost down to 10 and see what I gained in the 1/8th.

I am also installing a home made KUP water vapor system. total cost of about 100 bucks right now.

If you don't surpass my times your going to get some ribbing.

My MAF equipped stock bottom end shouldn't be out running you to the 1/8 let alone the 1/4.

I've never checked the rear bushing on my suspension but I bet they are shot. I'd like to switch to solids, I bet there is .10-.15 to be gained in the 60' just going to solids.

Well I may have the better engine but you have the better turbo. I also bet that my car weighs quite a bit more but I should be able to get your times in mine. I was cutting 1.57-1.61 60's on 5-6#s I hope to up the boost and let it eat off the line.
