Default Some turbo shakedown runs

Well on a hot day 4 psi of boost and a safe tune of 9.7-1 AFR with low timing. I am happy so far. my car weigh in @ 3996 race weight lol i know. well made about 4- 1/8 mile runs cause i have a vert with no rollbar. But oh well !!
So my 60's ranged from 1.817-1.879 not bad on dr leaving @ no boost 2k rpm and mine only full pass was 1.86 60ft 7.983 1/8 @ 86mph and 12.44@110 not bad seeing its pig rich and no boost plus this car is a whale lol

not bad for no boost and that raceweight

How much boost are you planning to run when everything is setup?

12 - 14 psi + stock short block. Make sure to upload pics of the carnage. (J/K)

I bet it will hold for a while.

*edit* Good runs on 4 psi BTW.
