I understand that you are the man, but you are only 10 hours away from the wonderful state of Maryland. I do have some family in Marietta, so I will have a place to stay. I am assuming I'm going with the HKS f-con and 1000cc injectors. Moving on, someone mentioned something about jealousy and hate....I am capable of neither. That would require emotion, and sense I am numb to the outside world, this leaves me to believe that I am only motivated by the truth. Trust me I want a car that makes this much power....like 790 flywheel, because it will make going very fast, very easy. Chim-Chim...yes your numbers, 371 rwhp and 114 sound great, you should be able to run 11's. Word, homie....Shariff what is your opinion on the most radical, semi-off the shelf performance......td06, with 20g or 60-1 upgrades, SFR stuff concerns me and they don't have much backing them up, plus I'm sure their manifolds will crack and the fit/finish of their kits, leave alot to be desired. And then there is this APS extreme, what turbos are they using, I can't find the specs anywhere....What exactly do I have to do to get banned from this forum, as my good bud TODD has warned me, Thanks Toddy

I havent been to the track with my current setup. Prior to this, I was making roughly 540whp Dyno Dynamics, and was running traps in the neighborhood of 124-127mph throughout the day. My car is full weight, at around 3450lbs with me in it. My ET's are terrible, admitedly, becuase I need more practice on the launch. 60fts are 1.9 to 2.2 mostly which is crappy. Best ET at the 540whp level was 11.4. Clearly, the car has the power to go 10's, but I personally cant do it yet.

In regards to turbo setup, the upgraded Greddy setup, or the APS Extreme probably delivers the most sheer airflow of the bunch. APS claims 50lb/min worth of airflow from the Extreme TT kit (per turbo) which is theoretically enough for 1000 crank hp. Upgraded Greddy is in the range as well.

Come on down when you are ready!

Zmaestro, just now saw this thread. i believe that 9s will be fairly easy to hit after you get rid of the 6MT. the tranny just wont hold up (now) to do it. i was messing around with my setup now and ran some weak babied (soft launch and granny shifted) 11.2s at 128 with a slipping clutch all the way for the last 200 feet in 5th gear. with a good clutch, im sure someone with my same setup could go mid 10s. this is all at a self tuned 17 psi, nothing crazy...

i am going back to the track on friday to see what i can get with the slipping clutch then i have a TH400 sitting in my back room i will be installing beginning of the week next week.

then i will have a better update. my car is fully built stock greddy tt kit, darton sleeves, arias extreme duty pistons, with not a lot else done to it...

i can seriously see an high 8 second, licensed and insured Z in the next couple years without a problem. of course i am very optimistic!!!

PS, i am really sick of the "dyno numbers" dynos are a joke to me, who cares, they can be altered, TRAP SPEEDS cant...... dynos are great to tune with but dont post up your numbers
