For your 11.7 @ 125-how much boost/power was that with? After messing with 3 Forged cars I have an idea of what I would run, but you know how that goes, only one way to find out. My goal isnt to run 10's, I feel that is too easy, my goal is to run 10's on low boost with less than 500whp on a DD

Same here!
My goal is to run 10's with my 480hp.
Going 10's would be easy with an extra 201hp I have on tap.
Should be good times!

Yeah, I wasn't going to go since mine is now in the shop for a bit, but I don't know if I can pass this up.

Hey-old MRC is long gone, new MRC is better for everybody About 2 weeks away I cant wait. I wish Julian would get a tranny in his personal street car so we can line em up right, everybody knows what Im bringing to the gun fight, we dont know much about him....

Keep in mind this is from a dig, on a preped track, launch, and more important shifting speed "and a little skill
" is going to be in play here.Bert, Julain and my self have 1.6 to 1.7 60ft so I think Its going to come down to shifting. I think Bert is going to spank us on Low boost! He plans on keeping it in 4th, with his calc, he's good for 135plus in that gear. I have to shift to 5th and so does Juian, that = at least .3 of a sec.

This isn't even gonna be close. Not to sound like one of the many dudes on here that are on Alberto's nuts but he ran 11.98 with a ST setup and Julian was barely able to beat that last time at the strip against philthy
