6265-6266 makes plenty of power to run a 9 second pass. Takes practice and car setup and boost control to make it happen. Plus a good drag suspension. 2.5 hot side and 3" cold side for piping

Don't expect to just go out and run a 9. It will take time so don't get discouraged.

Thanks man had the car forever almost gave up next thing is a decent suspension I wanna drive the car on the street sometimes I've had plenty of cars and bikes but this thing is the one I can't part with and it's just missing I/c piping and a down pipe that's it far to long for something so small it's about that time.

What this guy said. You can have all the power in the world and still not run 9's. I have the same set up you have. I went 10.8@134-136mph's but I have learned ALOT since then. Good slicks, boost by gear, alignment and good suspension. Full throttle shift is going to help ALOT which is why I was not doing. Like turbo ls said, dont get upset because you wont go 9's first night out!

I've gotten to 10.4 @ 138mph with about 650hp, suspension, new slicks but on a GT35R - Some tell me that 9's are not possible with that size of Turbo and others say it is possible.

I stopped listening, and I am going to focus on consistency first. Did I mention I have 90% of my interior.

Gt35 will run 9'a no problem. Just going to take some work. I'm getting closer and close to hitting 160mph which is 8 second territory with the right setup. I'll be happy if I can consistently keep shaving time off my passes and hit low 9's

The right set up would be to have the rear wheels driving the car as well as the fronts.
