Put the PT88 on the car... be happy with it spooling about 3k rpm once you get it worked out... and be happy with it making 900 to the tire...

You're goals are all over the place... you say you want 1k to the tire... then you'd be happy with 10's...

You should be happy with it making 750 and running mid 9's.
haha yea i think too far ahead sometimes, my goal should be getting the damn thing installed first. but as for the 10s i think the limiting factor would be the guy in the seat not necessarily the car making the power to go faster then 10s. i haven't raced in a long time and certainly not with anything that makes that kind of power so 10s would be a nice starting point i think. thanks for the input btw!

I agree with you, mostly.

I'm that 1% I guess?

OP's car should run strong with the combo he has mentioned.

Point out which car was yours and I will ask Myles and Lucas if they saw you at the drag/roll event. Being cryptic makes no sense. I trap 140 on low boost in 6800 DA.
