Good question. Those B-atches are 5-600 dollars here with decent mileage.

probably impossible considering it spins like a ***** on 10lbs of boost, ill need to get drag radials just to hold decent boost let alone some nitrous, car is super light and just lights these bitches.

can i just interest you in some track video?

welp worked on the nitrous and boost controller in the 8th today, track could have been better but at least i got my boost controller sorted out and where i want i have her set on 21lbs right now basically, i made 10 passes over 100 in the 8th easy today, one of them was a 107mph on boost only on a 2.0 60ft...

last pass was after someone oiled down the track and they cleaned up it was like 42deg and the track was cold and i juiced a tiny bit off the line and cut a 1.8 so nitrous is working good, just gotta try some things, the car is a hand full to say the least.

i turn off the spray in 2nd gear and keep it pinned and it was spinning and wandering bad, so i chopped it and straitened it out and then said **** it and shifted 3rd and planted it, since i figured teh track was shot and i wouldnt make anymore passes, it went 1.8 60ft, went only 103 in the 8th because of traction, then i went 11.03 @ 134mph out the back lol car is a rocket. just need some more work and passes.

i have video, incar and out of car going through it right now

WOW very impressive! What was the 1/8th mile numbers? It looks like the top end charge is incredible. I would love to see the difference between the 4.8 with the cam and a 5.3 with a cam. hint hint,,,,,any plans of swapping your 5.3 in there?
