i would still run a track bar, still a lot of leverage there.

Thanks guys for the kind words.... the FI forum wanted nothing to do with my thread lol...

@ jdm inc what is your set-up? those slips are close just wish mine was a 9 already haha

@ Zer0_SpeedWorks what sphericals are you running?

@ TheMilkMan lol at the zip ties. we had to cut the lower rad support to fit the new monster of a turbo. and i thought you were still in DSM land when did you cross over?

and 0bd1_Kanobe i envy your screen name lol

Good job Taylor. Heres the single slip from Vegas. I think we might have to try to line em up when I get another motor together. Hopefully we'll grt those 9's this year.

Congrats on the single digits! What improvements were made to previous setup to pickup 2 tenths? Or was it just seat time?

Picked up quite a bit more on the back half. Maybe just better driving, more power or didn't let off.

Congrats on 9s!

That pic is not at Bandimere, I am going to say Vegas IFO? The lower elevation would help for sure, congrats on the 9!

Yea no ****... We just cleaned up the tune a little bit. Best it has trapped up here is 151 which was like 780hp on a dyno jet with a 1.2 cf on 36 psi I set it up pretty fat for the altitude change so I would imagine with a correct air/fuel it would be around 825ish here...so 157 in Vegas is good but it did creep to 42lbs. This car is setup super basic lol it has 2 1/4" boost pipes and one 38mm gate among other crappy stuff. All in all we switched ic, front struts, and some bushings and realigned. We are yet to see improvement of the short track due to only getting the one clean pass in Vegas. I'm sure 2013 will bring good things to all the Colorado guys I can't wait.
