Default Finally switching to 88's Finished pics added

After all these years I'm finally switching to Jose's, Forced Inductions 88 mm turbos. The car is currently at Speed Inc waiting for some piping. Dan Marks is doing all the fab work for the conversion. Jim Moran @ Speed Inc. is going to help with the changes in the tune up.

My t4 76's From Jose we went a best of 4.31 @ 181 in the 1/8th and 6.88 in the 1/4. I had the boost controller commanded to shut off at 5.4 seconds. My bad, lol!! Those were some bad *** turbos!! Can't wait to see how the new ones will perform!!

Nice! Weren't you class racing with the 76's? Moving to something else or just adding weight?

The LS series weight isn't a issue. It will help, tracks aren't record breaking. We are also running LDR and they don't give any weight breaks for turbo size. It's tough to race big blocks and pro mod 88's running t4 76's. LOL!!!

Very cool. Is there any place that a guy could do some reading on forced induction's turbos? Their website is kind of dated and doesn't seem to have any new info on their new products.

Best bet is to call and talk to Jose. Their customers showcase the products pretty well. All kidding aside , making the perfect combo is the key. Give them a call.

I'm pretty sure Anth will run both classes. It's hard to get a good car count in the LS series. LDR is a new class that could be great. Time will tell.

Yep, I figured he'll do both LDR and SO. I don't know if he'll be able to run Radial Warz also at the NMCA Race, since the run order is Radial warz then SO. Be interesting to see what he does. I hope he can get the combos to work.

They are spoken for. But I'm sure Jose could come up with some more.
