Default First time out with new build ran 9.90

Just got car running. Its a 2000 T/A APS Twin Turbo with a 440 lsx block with ls7 heads/intake. No cage yet so only got 1 run. Went 9.90@ 132, Tune was off and it stopped pulling @ 6400, about the last 100' feet or so. Didn't use the trans brake and left @ 2000rpm. It still has a little left in it. Only running 9 lbs, hope to run 15 next year when I get boost controller installed.

yeah, I was thinking the 132 trap wasn't any better than a good n/a stroker motor but then I saw the 8th mile mph and that was really good. Even at 9 lbs, seems to have a lot more potential.

That 1/8th mph is good for about a 9.2 when you get it sorted out.

Can I get a complete suspension mod list on the car. Very nice times of course with tons of potential left.

At the time it had bmr k member,tubular control arms, upper and lower. QA1 single adjustable coil over shocks up front. Rear BMR torque arm, lower control arms, control arm relocation brackets and stock shocks. I am in the process of putting in mini tubs, QA1 single adjustable, adjustable control arms, and springs with adjusters
