Car is still sitting on jack stands with a bad turbo.. We will see if it makes it. If we do, be ready to see 50+psi now the WG is fixed.

How did your testing go?

I'm pretty anxious to the turn out for FIS myself. Keep hearing rumors of crazy streetcars running that class. I just hope they're all nhra legal if quick n fast enough. Don't wanna see people getting booted. that's no fun for the spectators.

My friends that were in the stands liked it. My wife drove a stock one for a while, they thought it was cool someone made one go fast lol.

Dang I almost entered FWD for the higher payout too... I qualified 5th in FIS with a 10.72 haha that class was crazy!

haha cool man I’m glad they enjoyed it! Yeah my dad drove the 4dr as a commuter car when I was in high school and I begged him to sell it to me but he never did haha Finally he sold it to me a few years ago and I started building her just to be different and to have more room and she sits where she is at now it’s by far my favorite build ;) yeah FIS was super crazy man! 5th place thats great! I wanted to compete in FIS but I didnt have carpet so they bumped me to FWD but either way I had a blast! what tranny setup are you running with your power built stock? Im worried to turn up the boost because it will destroy my JDM H22 tranny :scared:

Got our pass from a different angle.

2nd pass in this video.

http://youtu.be/g8QwnLx9MRo

Looks like i would have had a 10.3 pass had i stayed in it on this pass. Here is the slip of my 10.6@106 vs my 10.45@145. My issue is my Single Disc clutch is not liking all the heat i am throwing at it off the launch, causing it to not like to shift fast. You can hear how bad the shifting is in the video lol. Maybe i need a twin now damnit.
