It is having a weird issue, it builds good power up until 5200rpm's and then it just bottoms out. Not valvefloat, so dunno whats going on.
Hopefully the LMR crew can figure her out in time for the event.

wow that is wierd, im assuming its at full boost by then so its prob not a pressure induced boost leak. bad MAP maybe? thats strange, or something that measures or has to do with rpms like a CPS.
lol, bet your glad its LMR's problem haha. I might have to swing by and see it, sounds like a bad *** gtslow

can you convert it to front mount? Seeing as though you are going all out?

Im working on either converting to front mount (what I really want to do, but best quote I got was $2500) or getting larger turbo piping made for the current setup. We got a family friend that is a fabricator and can help out.

I'm sorry I didn't get this post done sooner, but I wanted to publicly thank Todd Nall, Frank Piper and Darin Chipi for their help at the 60-130. I also wanted to thank those of you who came out to run and those of you who came to spectate. We had a great time and I can't wait for the next event. We learned a lot about how we are going to run the event next time and how we are going to capture run data. We had 20 cars run in the 60-130 and 92 spectators...
In the meantime, we are still going through the 150 files we have from the day and for now, here are the runs I have (please post the type of car you had at the event if it's not listed):
Nick Kallergis - 8.03
Vince Turner - 8.47
Todd Nall - 6.57 (996 Twin Turbo Porsche)
Peter Blach - 7.80 (Nissan GT-R)
Tim Roberts - 11.49
Robert Parker - 9.39
Chris Piel - 8.30
Bob Helms - 3.97 (TT Viper with a power glide tranny)
