On the dyno, iat's started out at 70 degrees and went up to 125 by the end of the run. The intercoolers are mounted just ahead of the front tires, so they weren't getting much airflow on the dyno. (havn't datalogged iat's on the street yet).
Raceweight is 3,800, I would like to be in the high 10's at 145+ on 315/35/17 Nitto DR's. I don't really care so much about the ET as I do the MPH.

Awesome numbers! 
I have to ask, since I am building a setup very similar to your old one.
What'd you do with all the old parts like the headers and the Gt80?
Also, I know i've asked you a while back, but after having some more time with it, what is your final opinion on the GT80? Seems alot of the Ford guys think its a little lazy.

Thanks everyone
97ChameleonTA- I sold my complete single turbo system. I was happy with the turbo, but I also don't have anything to compare it to. (I only would if I had tried different turbos with the same system).
Jim_H- Thanks for understanding. Most people see a HP # and automatically assume it's an all out drag car, which could not be further from the truth.
This car will not be in the 9's, ever. I break enough driveline components on radials, and with this amount of power and how heavy the car is, enough traction for 9's would practically guarantee me a flatbed ride home.
I'll take it to the track to see what kind of MPH it can pull, that's all I'm really curious about. I am not concerned at all about ET, I'm just satisfied with the amount of fun I have driving this car on the street. It's nice being able to drive around a 900 hp car unnoticed.
