its right around 12-12.5psi when I shift 2-3, never goes any lower then 10psi after a shift. Never know with a 50.00 boost gauge though, could be off..
Brian H was there and said it was lifting them about a foot even and carrying them a good bit. Car felt good leaving. I am trying not to get the car to wheelstand, too much low hanging stuff to break if it comes down too hard..

Spohn drag bar, little preload on the RH side. I was going to put the fancy DA Strange shocks on the back but they wont work with this sway bar so I just stuck the stock shocks back on for now.

Its not chrome moly I dont think, friggin thing weighs 35lbs 
Every little bit helps, the brakes helped, the filter was covered before on the bottom and I'm sure directing some air its way didnt hurt.
I had the tune pretty soft down low because if the ET streest before, cranking up the bottom end between the the converter flash (4200) and 5500 is what did it. I couldnt do that with the ET streets since it would just blow them away if I did. I didnt fool with it at commerce at all when I had the ET drags on at first, too hot and I was more concerned with nice pictures..

Told ya it'd go nines sooner than later.
Way to go KP glad its working awesome for you.
I take it the MONDO is holding steady now, not leaking boost anymore?
SDCE set up rocks, no slip=working on other parts of your combo to go faster.
3.4 the D1 now and have some more fun

Not enough injector or gear for the 3.4 pulley, tried it on the street and while it really pumped the midrange boost up (3psi @ 4500), after 6200rpm the injectors were at 101% just to keep a 12:1 a/f and the a/f started climbing after that @ 60psi
When it cools off out it will be plenty quick.. Cool, yeah I got the same BOV too when I bought the IC
Get some injectors and gears then...its never quick enough...you prove this by constantly refining your tune and suspension set up Go for that other red formula, that is who I was gunning for with my D1 poor man set up
9.50@138-140 with the 3.4 in this weather....I think she can do it

I wont have the car at NvsS Kurt, 11 passes in 95 degree Atlanta weather July 13th and 9 passes in the heat again last night and I'm done for a few weeks. I'm sick of cleaning the rubber off this thing 
I am going there to help someone out with their car Saturday evening so I may come up early just to spectate/hang but these 500 mile round trips towing through the mountains at 3am and are taking their toll
j, I know it would go 9.70s with the 3.4. If I was gunning for anyone it would be a lot quicker then it is now. My goal was a reliable, fun car and stay above 9.99 so I dont have to deal with the safety stuff/license etc - been there and just dont want the hassle. The car still has more in it with the 3.7, I'm still on stock connecting rods so I dont want to blow it up just yet. It would run 137-138 at BG right now but I really have the timing backed off up high, I see no reason to beat it up on the top end for a couple mph..
