OUCH Kev, lets just pretend those dyno numbers were in the upper 600's cant we

She should 60ft great now with how docile the turbo is off the line, with the s/c'er it would hit the tires hard right off the line

All I'm saying is 500 'real' rwhp at your altitude on a nearly stock weight car should be good enough for solid 10s, no slam intended You know how the car runs better then anyone else, I dont put much into those dyno numbers the way it was done..

I know what you meant I was just trying to be funny. I know the car makes at least 478rwhp

The damn Procharger shoulda got me there too bad I didn't have the patience for it 10's would have been mine last year if I kept working at it.

Seems I toasted an O2 sensor today, the driver side got real lazy, guess it didnt like the meth being ran through it when I had a leaky check valve on the meth kit.

been aiming that high for 2 years going on 3 now

BUT i'm just going for a "close" to my racing and modding this season, 10.99 and i'm done for good. No more for me. Its been fun, but I'm thinking of ditching the Formula and putting the drivetrain in a early pontiac, either a 67 bird, 61 ventura or 65 Le mans and cruising it for the coolness factor.

If my new combo works the way I think it will, the 3.50's are staying.

Wow! Isn't your combo going to make more power? I'm thinking of 3.08's @ 7000 rpm with 28'' tires.
