It won't do them lol. Need to get the anti lag set up better so it will build enough boost. Right now it's set up more as a 2 step.

Re: Something a little different. 62mm del Sol build for 2013
Car has been parked since breaking the trans back in the end of January, recently got some motivation to get back on track with this project. Made a few changes and seemingly getting this car heading in the right direction! After figuring out the 2nd gear lock out issue, the car would just shear the teeth off 3rd gear in the burnout box (twice in a row). So swapped out the trans for another built unit (quaife, treated gears, and a cuff, etc), and everything seems to be working well. Gearing is a bit different than I was used to in the car (LS final, 1st & 2nd, B16 3rd, and ITR 4th), so tires spun pretty good in 3rd/4th with the shorter gears and old slicks. Car is down a bit on MPH, but imagine that is due to the tire spin up top
After getting rained out weeks prior, I took the car to IFO Gainesville this past weekend for a few shakedown passes and some testing. Definitely need more seat time, been about 8 months since I put a pass on it, and a few adjustments (new slicks, and rear wheel speed to set up boost by gear properly) and I should be able to start chiseling away towards that 9 sec slip finally!

Surprised I never stumbled upon this thread before wray! Everything looks great, and I loved following your build through the years with this thing. Finally started making progress on my SOL project now. Looking forward to having two 62mm Del Sol's rolling around O-Town 
. Good choice on the gearing btw, Kinda Similar to what I plan on running in mine:
MFactory 1st
LS 2nd
B16 3rd
B16 4th
LS 5th
Mfactory 4.05 Final Drive!
Now with school almost over for me I can come out to some events and catch up with ya! Good luck with the car this season
