It was like that for a LONG time. I guess they just got fid up.

Really though, it is just way to easy to build a 10 second car now days. [Roll Eyes]

Nope decided to hold off until this Fri.

Re-tuned it for a bit more power.

I ran one 11.45 at Infineon last Wednesday and the official came out to talk to me.

I want to up the boost from 7psi with my 3.6" pulley to 10psi with my 3.33" pulley when I get my 60lb injectors installed and go for a 10 sec pass. Should I do it at Sac? How pissed do they get when you run under 11.50 with no cage? How may sub 11.50's would I get before I get thrown out? Should I do it during a test and tune or a grudge night?

I know I got a lot of sub 12.00 runs with no hassle when the cage rule was 12.00. However, that was a long time ago and I heard that they are cracking down.

Thanks

Now that's a questionable statement lol [Razz] jus playin!

By the way i met your buddy Jeff w/ the blue Supra.

Nice guy and looks like he's on track with getting the car to ET better.

He needs a bigger turbo [Big Grin]

Need-a-cage - I would do it up at sac. They tend to be a bit less strict than Infineon but it seems like they are cracking down as there are more and more sub 11.50 cars prowling the streets now-a-days [Roll Eyes]

Just don't do it at a big event and you should be fine for a little while.

On that note we should have a few cars getting warnings this Fri at TNT so come on up and get booted out [Whoo Whooooo!]

It will probably be a couple months away. I ran it once with my 3.33" pulley on it and my Nittos and it ran 123.7mph in hot weather, but it was running too lean. I am running 30lb injectors with an 8:1 FMU. I have 60lb injectors waiting to go in, but I need a way of tuning it. I was going to get a Tweecer, which has a long learning curve, but I have been reading about guys having hardware problems with them and that makes me nervous. The PMS is just out of my budget right now, so I don't know what I am going to do. Anyway, I am sure it will break 125mph with a good tune and the 3.33" pulley in colder weather. A good 60ft should hit the 10's with 125mph. However, my clutch is slipping when my 60ft gets to the low 1.6's.
