Finally went 9's with vid
 

I finally got everything working went to the track for the first time with the bs3.

Vid: http://media.putfile.com/chad86

60 ft 1.57
1/8 mi 115.7mph
1/4 mile 130 mph
1/4 mile 9.97

I had to lift right around the thousand foot mark because the wastegate line blew off the back of the intake and boost started to climb fast. I think there is quite a bit more in it but they kicked me off the track so i guess i have to go get licensed etc. This was on 17-18 pounds of boost and still on stock 99 heads, only thing upgraded is the springs. Da that night was 7200 ft im going to try to make it down to a sea level track here soon to see what it will do there. Raceweight is 3900 pounds.

Nice run man...that thing makes some power :devil:

Got any direct links to the vid I can d/l from?

damn you got your cheerleading section and everything.

got any underhood pics? your car looks like a beast man!

here are some pics

Nice job, especially considering the altitude!

DA of 7200ft and your car weighs 3800lbs and you still run a 9 second time letting off?!?!?! :drive: Nice job bro!

What is the buildup on the bottom end? I assume a TH400 backing it up?

Diamond pistons, pro mod rods, thats about it still stock mains and bolts, yes it is a th400 the six speed didnt like the power to much so i switched over a couple months ago.

what suspension are you running looks like your bouncing around alot

Nice.

very nice!

I have a very similar combo, stock 99 heads and cam only upgraded valve springs and the bottom end, hope to get similar results :D
