    Yeah but it takes me so long to build one I figured everyone would loose interest.

    Welp I hit the track tonight and made some passes on drag radials. Man I think I love these tires. They are stable as hell on the topend. I sleeved the 88mm turbo down to a 76mm. I think I may need to do some more tuning on the car to run that sleeve. All in all is was a fun night and i pulled the sleeve out just to see how it would do on radials and it still went 132mph! :)

    Well like I said, the turbo was sold and then the guy backed out. I'll upgrade it here soon. Right now I got some races coming up that I'd like to make so I'm just going to leave this turbo on there for now. I think I can bust off 140+ with an 88mm... Definitely not this 88mm but there is another one that I'm eyeballing. Just gotta save up for it. Its not cheap! :bang:

    Something completely custom?? I know some guys touch the low 140s with a GT47 88 but it seems like its tapped at that point. Although the mod motors seem to hit the low 140s easier with those just due to efficiency. I would love to convert to a 91.5 and a TH400 next year myself! lol Good luck man! Get some more cash days vids goin!

    I guess there is more involved than just putting a sleeve in that thing and still getting it to bust off a good et. I guess it would be too good to be true if the only change you had to make to run TS was put a sleeve in it.

    I had other issues on Friday night. I'm going to put the sleeve back in it and do some more testing with it. I think we can be competitive. Just have to see.

    Are they giving you the same weight break as Clifton and Eric?

    Yup I can weigh 3100... Too bad the car weighs 3350. I'm not going to gut it either. I guess I'll be 200lbs over weight. :doh:

    I'm assuming there is nothing else you can do to cut weight without gutting it?

    From what I hear there is a shitload of weight in the doors. I just dont want to cut my car to pieces. My goal is to hit 5.20's the way it sits right now. I think I can do it. :welder:

    More videos from the cruise:





    Still trying to get the controller figured out. The boost either doesn't come in fast enough or it drops off toward the end of the run. We'll get there though! :)

    That was ChrissRacing. He was having problems with his car. The damn thing wouldn't build boost off the line then about 200 ft out it would dump like 30 pounds all at once. Poor tires. He will get it figured out.
