That's a funny sounding turbo you have.. :evillaugh:

I can't wait to see it go 8's this year!

If you want a fast one, it has to look funny like mine! Lol

Nice thing is I saw 18 psi where I used to do 20+, I'm hoping its due to breathing better and not belt slip. Should know more after the third gear pulls tomorrow.

Hey now, that's not nice! Lol

I'm not surprised it's making quite a bit less boost after you hogged those heads out. It should drop your IAT's a bit as well.

You started it! Lol

That's what I hope to see with the heads. Time will tell.

Billy you're gonna need more bars in that thing!!!....not as many as a coyote would need, but more than you have now. I kid I kid. I'm also not surprised you're seeing less boost with how much better that thing must be breathing.

That's right...the 5.0 envy is strong with this one

Manuel suggested I should call the car the "Roadrunner", and I like it, because we are always faster the a Coyote. LOL

25lb, wow!

18 now and maybe 20 in third, but let me tell you, this bitch is fast, and its not even tuned! I told Manuel today that it scared the shit out of me doing pulls on the street! Thinking about renting a dyno to do the tuning.

I have a 5 pt now but I think I will need an 8.50 cert. cage this year. I cant wait! Car is going to be stupid fast!

How many 8s runs do you think before they tell you not to come back without a new cage? Lol. Love the redefine.

RoadRunner, I like that!!

I owe it to Manuel, its going to be on the car soon.

IDK, I don't run any NMRA events or anything right now. I mostly do test and tune and street night. You can get away with a lot at those. I do plan to try some events this year though and will get to work on a Wolf Race craft 12 pt as soon as tuning is done.

Just depends on the track. I was surprised when I raced in Tenn, it was an eye opener. Basically anything goes. In CA they would piss themselves then throw you off the track while screaming never to come back.

Here in TX, it seem most are pretty easy, unless it is a sanctioned event by any of the sanctioning body's. Especially if it is a T&T or a street night, then its easy.

That's no joke, I've seen a few go bottom 5's without a cage back home and I've rode shotgun in an outlaw car going mid-low 4's and the track officials didn't even blink. Lol
