G-Force Stage V, Moser 9", and lots of suspension mods. No matter what folks tell you, it takes a lot of finesse to get that much power rolling with an M6. Progressive N2O FTW.

How much $$ did that G-Force V run you and did you have to send them a core? I've already got the 9" under the car and the whole suspension catalog on order. Had planned 2-step and e-boost controller.(progressive through each gear) Car will be running on 325/50/15 MT drag radials.

The entire assy was $4200 before freight. Core charge was $950 IIRC. Mine does retain 5th and 6th gear, they of course offer a delete if you so desire.

I work at HPP racing, and most cars that come in are north of 700rwhp...with several running 960-1070rwhp...all street driven with 6spds. With the right tires, and a boost controller...hooking is not much of a problem. Most of them run the Hoosier drag radials in 335/17...can almost dead hook in first from a roll. Same with a new set of MT 315/17's. Nittos on the other hand, will spin on 300 rwhp cars

Almost dead hook in first from a roll with 960-1070rwhp, so mostly Supras?

Not really...with a stock motor, and only 900 rwhp...he ran a 6.2 @ 115mph on drag radials..same tires he drove to the track on, and drives on every day. Car now makes 1070rwhp and eats trannys for lunch, which is what we are working on now since its so heavy.

Here is the video..

As far as roll racing...the Dallas area has a large amount of fast highway cars, with several 1200-1300rwhp twin turbo vipers. So people tend to go from a roll too....we can play both games at HPP
