628 rwhp @ 26 psi on pump gas and methanol. This is how I daily drive the car. I had a oil line problem so when that is fixed I am going back to dyno on race gas and higher boost and also on the nitrous.

from a dig the TA. from a roll maybe the supra. 2 very fast rides i like them both. i doubt you was pulling really quick back on him. and a larger turbo doesnt always mean quicker. the *** dyno can lie. im sure you know what your doing being you already have made the car quick. but that size turbo will take a bit longer to fully spool. i would almost imagine your slower in the 1/4 et wise but probly trap a hell of alot quicker? i could be wrong.

Yeah...but a 67mm is a small single on a Supra.

About the outcome, I believe the TA will get owned easily. That Supra will be doing 138-140mph traps on boost alone.

His first post was awful. No need to talk **** unless the other person gives you a reason to.

in case you missed the first post... the TA already has a win on the supra, the supra is a bad ***, but dont take anything away from the TA Either.. it might not be a DSM, but its still a badass

Yeah chris told me it started to sprinkel when they raced! Cedric said hewas all over the Rd got on and off the throttle a few time and started to run him down! MPH dosnt lie! MPH is what wins on the street! If cedric trap anything above 130mph i dont see a 500whp f-body running that mph! sorry But it still will be fun

There was no traffic in front of you so I dont know why you let off early. I was coming up pretty good on you. I get off at 11pm at night and I go that way every night. If you want to run again hit me up in a pm. Hopefully it wont be wet out tonight. Nice run though.

Yep..you are wrong. We were going roll. MPH is the kicker on that and this turbo makes more power up top, especially with the headwork I had done. I picked this turbo for a reason. The spool is not far off from my 67. Plus I have nitrous to spool the turbo up if I need it. I dont have a problem going from a dig with the auto. LOL, without a video you really dont know how I was pulling on him cause you werent there. I had to let off the throttle completely to get the car straight. Hell since the tune I can't go WOTM on street tires even if it is dry. Video will come next time so the bench racing can stop.

Amazing cars on both sides. I can't wait for the vid. The Supra needs to redeem itself, and IMO he won't have too much trouble doing that. Still rooting for the TA, though. Good luck fellas.

Just because you have the power doesn`t mean it will hook on the street. Thats why alot of lower horsepower cars run better on the street sometimes. No hooky no quicky! I know because I have the same problem with my 408 and spray on the street. Really hard to hook. At the track with my ET Drags I **** and get! Put a big shot on the 408 and bust ***. you can easily make 650-750rwhp depending on shot size. My 200 shot gets me 225rwhp on my 408. Good luck and be safe when ya`ll race!

I pulled on him at first by 1/2 to 1 car and toward the end when we had to get out of it due to a big curve he had 1/2 to 1 car on me. I was in 3rd when we ended. I wish we would have had more room I was very fun. Then I got pulled over for racing by hpd.. and NO ticket. so lucky me

I was running pump. I tried spraying ealier that night just for spool and the car just gets squirrely. Still pulls like a frieght train though At the beginning of this race the car spun a bit so he jumped out a lil bit. Once I let of the gas, straightened the car up and got back on it I started to pull. I let out about a car and a half up. Next time I will make sure the car doesnt spin. We ran less than an 1/8 of a mile so it wasnt much of a run.
