Wow, I completely forgot about this thread. Will def. have to get some pics posted up of the car. The 10 bolt took a **** the 1st week I had it out. Got a Quick Performance 9" with wave-trac differential and 3.25 gear. Also switched out the 15x3.5 Racestars for some 17x7s up front. Car still has 26" in the back for now. Will be switching to 28's this winter. Car made 671/590 on 12 lbs and 18 degrees timing. (playing it safe with the stock bottom end) Best pass so far in the 1/8th is 6.54 at 107! Converter seems to be pretty tight. Will be pulling it and sending off to Circle D to be loosened up a little. Also got my MSD 2-step hooked up. Launching off about 4-5 lbs! Still need to get a roll cage put in.


Plans this winter:

*8 Point cage (8.5 Cert)
*28" Mickey Thompson ET radials
*Re-paint engine bay
*Hide PCM & extend wires.
*Hide Fuse boxes.
*Re-do downpipe. Make it go from 3" off the turbo to a 3.5 or 4". Seems to spiking boost.
