Default New World Record - Import DPS 240SX KA-T 7.87@174mph!!

We had a goal and we were determined to get faster. This is the fastest pass to date on our KA-T and 7.40's are right around the corner!! The engine blew with about 400FT left. This motor lasted a total of 39 passes at the track and close to 100 passes on the dyno for tune/setup. I am so proud of our Team and extremely happy for my boss, Javy Ortiz. Without the collective support of our Friends, Families, Customers and Employee's this time would of never been achieved.

We did it for you, the Nissan Community!!

PS - We broke the record at Honda Day!! The people that ran the event we sponsored were kind enough to let us do a couple practice runs in between the down time of the event.

We broke our old 2 year strong 7.93 pass.

Atco ftmfw. Best track in the world to break records at. Always excellent da and 95% of the time great prep. 20 mins from my house too wish I couldve seen the run.

Did Atco last night, more runs than E-Town the night before but the Atco track was much slicker ....E town is also at a lower altitude supposedly and could give you a better time for your next run.

Show up to Atco next Thursday and give me some pointers on how to get better times out of my Ka-T

I'll see Sean. Thursday usually sucks for me personally, but I have to go out there anyways to get my Civic Dialed in. My tuner is actually right down the road from atco, literally.
