Should do a lot better with some boost out the hole and a few more lbs on top. The suspension was working. The 325's weren't spinning any, so far. I don't know if I'll make it back to the track before they close down for the winter. Kinda sucks, now that I have the itch.

Very nicely done for low boost and leaving at zero boost. Car will pick up 3-4mph with just leaving on boost. The 6spd kills some of it as well since boost drops between gears. With an auto, that car would have probably gone close to 145-147mph.

You have a lot of upside if you went 10.9@138 first time out. First time I had my Formy out with the turbo I went 9.8@141 and went 9.4@144 later and on DR's. I'm guessing I need to raise the two-step from 3600 to like 4500 to really get the car to rip since my car does not start to haul *** until over 5000 rpms.
