Ok, great runs guys. But I guess I'm gonna have to be the first to say it. The 10secsts video sure looks like there's spray on the car. Maybe I'm wrong but that turbo runs like an on/off switch.

Maybe that's what "cooler" means. Does the car have headers, ORY?

There is an STS Corvette (9.33/149/13PSI/Meth) and GTO in the nines.
Soon there will be a lot more.

Synergy has an STS F-body that should be in the with a six speed. The torque took out the current clutch. New clutch is going in.

My 427 STS TT, 3150 lbs...on 3 Bar Baby. lol.
High dollar 1,200 rwhp racing transmission on its way.

No suspension work, no weight reduction, stock 17inch WS6 wheels. My raceweight was 3774 with a 1/4 tank. Sunday I ran those times with almost a full tank!

Whats up man! Didn't know you posted on here. Jeff and the rest of the crew have done amazing things with the car. They received it in ****-poor condition, and have really took care of it. 10.79@128 aint too bad for an STS but don't think we are going to stop there. Some parts are already on order to go faster, and were talking about trying for a 9-sec pass on the stock motor by the end of the season I guess we'll have to wait and see!

8#s + a 400 hp cam only car should have the power to go mid to high tens at that weight all day. Nothing in Adams car, we fixed some crap hacking and that was all it was really, cam only car with a little boost. You should have no problem doing the same! Good luck with it
