Thanks again guys… I plan to go the track this Sunday, and ill try my best to set a good time… would you believe the record for the fastest FULL DRAG FWD car in my state is 12.2 ¼ mile, and the fastest record for the whole of Australia is 10.72, mean while I’m chasing my state record with a full street car.
As for how the car feels when I drive it, it feels bloody fast ! 1st and 2nd gear come and go within a few seconds and 3rd and 4th gear pull so hard its crazy to drive.
After I set a time this weekend I think ill change my intercooler pipes to 2.5” from 2.25 after the intercooler… and also look into either getting my turbo hi flowed and changing the wheel or intake trim to a 60-1, which my local turbo shop can do for me, and or from what everyone is saying I might also look into a precision turbo, those things seem amazing, I just hope it fits my current seutp with out changing much.
Ill post as many pics / time slips as I can on Sunday after I finish racing down the ¼ mile.
Regards James

yeah i was counting form the pics also.... u can't see all the fin's in one of the pictures.. so i jsut guessed.. but you coudl be also right.. maybe there is only 6 there... because 3 fin's = half the intake side that you can see... . back to pre school i go to learn how to count !!

maybe they took a shitload of timing out because of not running a c16 type fuel. the dyno is not messed up. even though that type i don't understand how the tq is rated but the whp is accurate.
BLKCRX - Nice Girlie!
Is that the wife, or girlfriend, etc?
Setup looks great. I've heard of PLENTY of people making over 400 at the wheels with a log manifold like that. I'd say either turbo ot exhaust restrictions are causing your "lack" of power as you call it.

Yeah as soon as I run on Sunday ill post up my trap speeds… it will be very interesting, ill be running on 17” wheels on the back of my car, and 16” 540s semi comp’s on 8psi on the front, not the best tire set-up but it’s the best I have for now.
As for my girl.. shes my gf of three years… so yeah she’s used to me mucking around with my car but I often get is it ME or the Car you want…. Eheheh I always say the car then I get hit quite quickly and change my mind to her. !! eheh
My exhaust setup is a custom 3” system from the downpipe back, which is 2.5”. Im running no cat and the whole exhaust is just straight though, the wastegate is dumping into atmosphere down onto the ground.
The real test will be on the track, now I’m really itching to get down there to find out where I really am at.
