Lower pulley + race gas + toon + better D/A.

10 or 15? Going to be able to run it on pump with that much boost? What gas will you be using?

Cool I may skip the lower and get some custom grinds. That would be a little more pump gas friendly.

Unless your planning on dragging him it was probably not gonna be a w for you.
Did you forget the DA that Islander traps 134 IN? Imagine a decent DA.. he has 137-138 in it as it sits.

I also know of someone with similar power trapping 138. What does that mean?

Too spendy for the bump in HP.
Cams is the last mod I'll ever do on this car. In fact It would have to be a built motor to even consider it.

Not sure if I agree with him going that much faster in better da. However it does suck when you try to compare cars acorss the country with timeslips because we all know some tracks are faster then others.

Xactly, give me negative D/A at a fast track and I might already be at 140mph.

Just not a fan of spinning the blower that hard. Not to mention it's alot of boost for pump.

Ever notice how 99% of "records" are at Atco, Cecil, or MIR?

Racing down hill in negative DA with a firm tail wind! FTW! We get the same, if not better - DA up here... but the tracks are usually closed then due to the 3 ft of snow that inhabit the lanes...

Edit: For example of DA. My 475whp is SAE. It was roughly negative 2500-3000DA and the car made 495whp uncorrected. Its safe to say id make 455ish in positive 2500-3000da. While its not ground breaking hp from one end of the spectrum to the other... its still 40hp and thats more then enough to make people wonder why one car is so much faster then the other one for the exact same car.
