Come on LB, can't you remember what the corvette forum guys said, the GT35s are far to small to get you into the 7's. You need at least twin 88mms! Haha.

What plans have you got for the car to get it there?

HAHA ain't that the truth ! Just a new set of tires should get me there. We didn't get a chance to turn it up, went 8.4@170 first pass sideways.

Where to start....

First decide on a turbo already, then build & tune said turbo system.

Finish new water injection system.

Finish new fuel delivery system.

Run insane CR with turbo on pump gas. (Will have to see if that happens this year)

Adding to this. My real goal is 8.4x or better. On top of this I would like to help a few local builds see their way into the 8s as well this year.
