He should get a different turbo to run in the series, id bet someone could whip him up a turbo that would make the same kind of power and allow him to whoop up on some other cars.
luckily for the others he hasnt done it yet

I understand that he may not want to, but there are other turbos that could meet the requirements for some of the racing series, and still make that kind of power.
thats all I was saying

69bird, you are right about the turbo, he could very easily had Harry at precision build a 82 that could make that same power but this turbo was the first off the original race car set-up and it made only around 1100 on our race motor at w2w, that's why Kurt set us up with our current 88/98 that is quickly becoming a limiting factor on our current motor. When you have a turbo like this laying around the garage with only very little dyno use it's hard to justify the cost of another turbo to fit rules to a race series that only has 4 races a year and changes the rules on a yearly basis.Mike wanted to build the ultimate ls1/turbo street set up that could be driven to the track run a mid to low 9 or even a high 8 
and drive home! This car will be at BG for all to bow down 
See you bitches fri.

Is Pat's elbow healed? Time for some more luggage dolly rides! We must return to the go-kart track! 
I must get in on the fun.....I looked for you and Steve on your way home from the track that night..........I would have handed you your ***...........until you pulled over on the highway and backed that piece out of the trailer .
Awesome numbers for that sled though ....can't wait to see it run in BG.
I definitely want to black out someday
(and I'm not talking about drinking beers at church either)....just make sure to keep the dirt out of my face 
See you guys Saturday if the ole heap makes down there.

Steve is right. I had Kurt talk to Precision and they could build me a turbo that would fit the rules and make the power I am at now. But I could not justify the money it was going to take.
Steve also explained fairly well why the car is so heavy. It has more plumbing than most houses.
5 gal. ice water tank in the back, A2W intercooler in front with heat exchanger. With 3/4" line connecting them equals a lot of water and weight. Scavange pump and lines. Oil accumulator and lines. 5" exhaust to a foot past the starter into a 5" cutout necking down to a 3" catback. But I can still take my T-tops off and put them in the back. Drive down the highway at 80mph, and listen to the radio. All while sitting comfortably in my leather seat. But most importantly it will lay the smack down on almost anything on the street.
Cable, the 60' will only get better. The track I was running at sucks and was spinning thru 1st. and barely bringing the tires up. I just got to find the sweet spot between leaving hard and dragging the bumper.
SOM, The CE will always be a second slower than the Formula. So when I go an 8...
