Took the car out to the track last weekend to work out some kinks. Car is almost full weight T56 magnum trans with JPC's single turbo kit, running on a 275/60 radial tire. Anybody that has ran radials with a stick car at the track can tell you, its not easy to get a radial to hook on the hit, especially a 3700lb car, so I was pretty happy with the results. Car still has another 200ish hp left in it. First pass waa 10.15@140mph, then a 10.04@140, then finally at the end of the night 9.98@138mph. Here is the vid

Were you shifting slow? I know sometimes the camera picks up the sound funny, not sure if you were taking it easy....

What rear gear?


Damn that thing sounds badass! Nice man.

Thanks man. I have been slacking on posting up progress. I work 70-80hrs a week so its hard to find much time to post. Some finicky 02 sensors were causing some major fuel issues for a while. Took me forever to figure it out because they would read fine on the logs. I finally just decided to replace them and luckily it fixed my issue.
