Not bad. It's always sweet when you go against the norm and it goes in your favor. I'm assuming it was pretty heavy to only trap 145 with that kinda power

Chris told me that the car wasted the drag radials 1-2-3rd on 13psi "M6 car"
and trapped 108mph in the 1/8 and 145mph out the back door and only ran 11.6.

He said the car was undrivable on 16 psi with the DR's.
He will see this and step in with more details.

I don't know what it weights but it has stock wheel cage the added weight of the turbo
system and a 12 bolt.

How are your IATs with the downpipes so close to the intake charge pipe?

Here is some of my progress from this weekend. Air to water piping and IC support brackets are done. I will get good finished pics once I have painted the brackets and everything is cleaned up.

We appreciate the love, and do our best to give back to the community...specifically this one, and yellowbullet. By far, the most hardcore and well rounded.

Make sure if you do call us, you let us know where you're from. However, lots of our forum vendors here do carry our products, support them the best you can, we'll fill in any gaps.

Yes 3900 lbs and you missed the part where it trapped 145 turned DOWN. At 13 psi and 3900 #'s it did that. That's with the stock 275/40 tires on front.
And with NO ice the iat's never get more than 10 degrees higher than ambient. I've actually never seen more than 8° above ambient because the heat exchanger draws the heat back out of the water.

Forgive my ignorance, but are A2W intercoolers usually only used for track/race type cars? Are they that much better than a a2a on the street or only a big difference when racing? Just thinking if its that much better on the street as well, I might want to look into that twin setup with the top exit a2w intercooler that Tick Performance posted. Opinions Thadd and everyone??

From what researched, it's not really much of a difference on the street but on the track is where it really shines because you can put ice in the tank

Thats what I was thinking... that they aren't "too" much better on the street but MUCH better on the track.

Man, we wish! We did buy a van to do more events but, I don't think we will be able to do to much outside the state, this year. few events at the local track we co-sponsor that will keep us busy likely. Next year, I am hoping we do more travel for events...hopefully even bringing our own car to one of them. This year though, talking about moving locations, as well as having a million things on our plate, we're just trying to keep our heads from spinning.

Hoping next year but it would be great to meet people we work with. Always down for a handshake! Send us some pics of your ride, we'll put those up on our page if cool with you. BEST WISHES at the events!!! If we end up going to any, we'll post up.
