I think brent from tea went 9.80 with a clone g5x2 and his 5.3 heads nothing speical according to him. I think he had one wet kit and one dry kit.

The only problem I see is gear selection.. If you spray anything over a 100 shot on the street with 3.73's or 4.10's you will have traction problems. It seems you would have no choice but to sacrifice NA performance for Nitrous performance.

N20 is usually that way!

Why do you think that the ARE Vette ran low 11s on motor, and went 9.2 @ 15x on the juice?

I agree.. I was running low 12's on my old setup and I was only making 390rwhp.. I think with 3.42's in this setup I should be able to run atleast a little better. The difference that I see between my old setup is my T1 cam had more tq down low than my current setup.. I am building a Road Race setup and weekend street setup to have the best of both worlds..

X3 is currently on hold for the public untill further testing is complete. It did trap 98.3 in the 1/8 with a set of Absolute speed S2.5 LS6 heads, NA, with a 2.1 60'. The car was a C5 at the Z06 fest in Bowling Green.

Drivability is a tad better, but right now, we have a whole new line of cams currently being tested, so look for more news on these soon!
