yea I gotta get some more seat time. I had just put in the twin disk and had a 2.6 60ft..I also gotta go with some race gas and more boost. I need to be at 28psi at least. The car will run the number next season.

Its been a challenge with this car to run good numbers, its the little things. Its not like my Chevys, those big V8s are point and shoot. You have to hustle this thing down the track, keep the boost up, hit the shift, not to hard or you will break it. The goal for this car was always 12.40s I think next year I will get it.

No matter how crappy your driving off the line, the car should have trapped much higher with that setup. Something in the tune is amiss. I was trapping higher on a small 16g using a crappy Starion intercooler...back in '02.

You dont need e85 to get twelves with that turbo.

Thats What it is Homie? Learn to talk.

Master Wop...What it is homie....I gotta turn the boost up. We got 360 at the wheels pump at 20psi, I need more boost that's all. Next season I will get my mid 12s pump. Then E85 here I come. I could use you guys expertise with the corn juice..

At that boost pressure and horsepower, it still should have trapped higher. I'm not hating, I'm stating fact. I'm just saying that there is something going on here other than poor drag racing skill.

Olson, Sean at FFTEC tuned it and it got 361awdhp on the mustang dyno. I got big time wheel spin and a crappy 60ft, that awful combination will always kill your time and trap speed. From the moment that light turns green, times a ticking. The 106 mph trap speed should be good enough to run 12s on a good pass. 25psi pump should get me there. I will try again next season.

I hate VR4s I wish I would have never bought it. I was cursed I tell ya.

The wheel spin will kill your 60' but not your trap. Something is not right.

Can I please have my time updated.
Thank you.

^^ nice effort!

Can I get mine updated too please? Turbo is a now a PTE6262

Update for GizmoVR4, this should jump him from 11th place up to 6th place (oddly enough, displacing me!):

car is HEAVY...leather seats, sunroof, elec windows and locks, full interior, heat, swaybars, steel shocks, all steel usdm body, stock fuel tank, full exhaust...all still there. Plus rollbar and air/water ic that add weight. It wouldn't surprise me that the car is 3400+lb with driver. The only weight loss is the bumper supports and AC & PS are gone. Most of the other mods actually made the car heavier!

We had it at about 34psi of boost and it was out of fuel. He's going to update the injectors to 2150's and add a fuel cell/external pump, and -8 lines which should enable us to up the boost and make more power. Also looking at taller tires to keep it from having to shift into overdrive. Shooting for a 9.9 ET.

Will scan timeslip and post video once I get to it.
