Keith's 2G Auto DSM in the 8's - 8.86@153 - Boostin Performance

This is Keith Kinowski's 95 Eclipse Auto. I have been working with Keith on this project for around 2 years, and we got the car running at the end of the year 2010. We made it to the track a couple times in 2010 with his best pass being a 9.27. This year we have been going consistant 9.0's at 38psi. We resently have started to push the car a little harder and have been lookin for an 8 second pass. We got one on 9-25. Im very happy and pound to say that Keith's 2G is the 3rd car Boostin Performance has gottin into the 8's this year.

Heres a little more about the car

Thanks B.J., This year has been very good to us. We are bringing Joeys car (Junk Box) to the track tomorrow I believe. We are going to try our best to get your manifold in the 8's!

Thanks Patrick, it was good to talk to you on the phone, and yes it does feel good. Let me know if you need any help with your projects.

Keith has the video of the 8.86 pass, but here's a pass from the weekend before. The track wasn't all that great and I think his tire pressure was too high, what do you guys think

Real nice car. Using nitrous to spool her up..? Doesnt sound like it.
A lil 2 step and a 75-100 shot launch will blast this puppy deep into the 8s

Right now we are reving it to 9K. We are going to bump it up a little so we can keep it in 3rd and not have to use 4th. We may have to bring it to 9200-9300.

We are bringing the car out next weekend so I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Talongt and Nonschlont, Thanks!

No nitrous yet, lol. We are going to use launch controll next time at the track, and probably save the nitrous for next year. Keith wants a 8.5-8.6 pass this year and I think its definitely possible!

I was gonna say that it didn't seem like you were getting the turbo to spool when you had it stalled up. Still cut a 1.4 sixty though. So that's impressive.

We have been cutting 1.3/1.4 60ft's all year without spray. For the car to be good on a Pro Tree I think a small shot out of the hole would work nicely.
