If I get the FCON navigator I can have sharif set up a race gas map and go for 650whp.

enjoy your and be safe.
Keep it man, you're to far in IMO to get rid of it. I havent seen Sharif tune anybody over 15-16psi on pump but good luck with that, regardless of boost level it will be sick....

I have to get this speed limiter removed, Ive hit it 2X since the build, I think TN put it back with the reflash, and they shouldnt have

Hey on the last vid you posted from 45-150 were you giving it part throttle before it looked like the need was about to fly off the gauge?

I'll zoom in to the tach/speedo only next time so you can see it better-as this isnt very clear First run is uphill from 45-150mph, 2nd run is from somewhere in 2nd gear to 140mph...low boost on both.

You should provide your customers with a warning-for having to buy tires every 3000 miles, sure is fun spinning through 2nd, sometimes 3rd, but its $$$ down the drain I'll make a better vid man, I was dissapointed with the clarity, I know I can do better

Step 3: Drive to Forged and give Sharif some $$$
Step 4: Drive back to MD and try not to wet my pants
Step 5: Roll with berto!

I've already posted I'm not going to make predictions public. When I installed my TN kit and drove it, I predicted 11's, it went 11's on the 2nd pass down the track. I dont want to predict anything again, cuz when I usually do I dont hit my goals. Believe me regardless of what I run, I'll post about it, and post vids from in-car. I will tell you, I'll only be running low boost at first until I feel Ive gotten 95% out of that power level, then I'll turn it up.

Here is a vid I think you guys will enjoy. High boost + 13 seconds of open road = legal speeds to speed limiter

Better be careful man. It always scares me to see vids of guys running upwards of 150mph on the highway. Never know what could happen at that speed....

I am as careful as one can be at those speeds. A top speed run now is soooo much shorter than when I was stock or with bolt-ons it would take 2 days to get to 150+ then...

Those were lift throttle shifts. Anything near a powershift gets me nasty wheelspin on the street.
