Default Getting ready for IFO Sunday Almost came off the dyno









Winstons car was on the dyno today boy was it a bad idea. Result of a 25psi pull she almost came off of the dyno. This car is pretty wicked and Sunday is going to be an amazing day....

Was it not strapped down? I don't see any straps, unless they were taken off before the pics were taken. Car looks nice though!

car was limited to only 35-35psi it couldn't raise any higher. Car went 9.6 @ 158 running about 127mph in the quarter mile. We need to figure out the boost issue.

to tell you the true we dont know what she have for power we put it on the dyno just to see if a problem that it had when away came to find out it was a fuel filter that is was junk..@16psi it made 492whp 27psi-827whp we still have to dial her in I dont have alot of free time to got to the track but one day she will get a full pass at 45-48 psi lol
