10.9999@125 will do it for me, and my goals for 2005 and up will be accomplished. All I want is a 10 sec run up here.
Now for the 75hp wet shot...I'll use that after said 10 sec run just to see what happens I hope it goes 128-130 on the chemical altitude fixer..but i'll be pretty much through with racing after I get my 10's. Its time to enjoy all this money and time i've wasted....errr invested in my car
Feb 1st will be the day.

I want to run 9.4-9.6, also pay off the debt I`ve accrued buying all these damn parts. With the AFR 225s(about 3 weeks away) , 15lbs instead of 10lbs boost, and getting my conv tightened up 400-600rpms it should be there Of coarse 9.4-9.6 will only happen in Bradenton or Gainsville cause Orlando never yeilds 1.3 60's for my car.

8.99 for ET, 160 for MPH, I've already dumped a ton of money into it, and plan to keep doing so for a little while now, I figure about 8k more and it should be looking pretty good.

Not a f-body or vette, but solid mid 9's in the 96' S-10 (street truck). 355 blowin through a 750 with twin to4e-60's. Also has a fogger with a progressive that I went 10.6 on. Keepin that on there just in case I need some help with the 60ft's.

For the 01' Get the LQ-4 in there with at least a cam for now with a colorado i-5 converter and go 10's NA.

First goal, get the blower installed.

Once installed, goalsa are conservative. 120 mhp traps, and 450 rwhp.

I'm with you J, on a almost full street trim show car to boot! I think it will do it as long as my 10 bolt holds up for a few passes.

Oh yea, 650 rwhp and 600 rwtq would be nice, should be close, we'll see.

My real goal though is to drive it more than I work on it this year!

i'd like to round up to 1krwhp
9.5 et 150+ sounds great
i think it will take an 8 to get back to the top of the 6 speed pile

i would trade all of the above just to not have to work on it at all the whole year and just drive it. its allready too fast for the road.

Well I started my 05 goals early this year by ordering a PTK single kit for my 2000 SS a couple of weeks ago

My goal is to get the H/C/N20 off the car and the system on and running low boost by summer. I hope I can make this happen.
