Default finally ran a 7!

well after 5 years of ******* around finally got the car down the track and did what I wanted to do, 7.88@178mph, that was on 23psi boost at 3265lb race weight, now that everything is working well will start to wind the power in and get to our final aim of around 7.50's and 185mph.
