Been a while but I'm going for #1

It's been a year and I never tuned my old nitrous setup. It definetly had the potential for 8's. But I always wanted this instead.

Ha, it's more then that. Let's just say, first pull made 1180 Ft lbs Right now the A/F is 9.2:1 and we still haven't put any timing in it. There's an extra 400 on tap.

So you're gunning for some low 10s, maybe a 9.9x, right?

Looks real nice and I'm glad to see it's coming along. Turbos are fun, aintdey?
