Well funny thing is I actually pulled a 1.55 that day but aborted the run when I saw that the guy I was up against caught a redlight...so I'm sure that low 1.5's are definitely there.

 

Nothing new for west this time around?

 

He is at the Track right now, qualified 1st for the 11 second class with 11.07 @ 129mph

 

Nice results, good time too. Is love to see what it would do at 35psi with a high compression built 2.0 like mine.

 

Just getting back in from west, best time of the day was what my buddy posted...11.07@129mph.
There was a little confusion with the tree in my 11 sec finals run ...ended up leaving with the 2nd place trophy. Yet again the meet was poorly organized and ended so late that I didn't get a chance to go for that frickin 10sec pass



Thanks man, this was @31psi...didn't even get a chance to really crank it and go full tilt.
I would love to see what it would do with something like that too...how much power are you making with your setup?
I think after I get this damn 10sec monkey off my back I'll look into building the motor.

 

congrats man! was the 11 second final between you and the Subaru wagon or that was semi finals? Saw a video... not sure if the car in the other lane was yours

 

Good job!

 

Thanks...no the run vs the STI wagon was the semi-finals. I ran Fr. Eddie in the finals (turbo pulsar)
I got a couple videos, will post them later today.

 

Thank you sir...I see you're doing quite well with your Red setup...impressive.
Gonna stick with the stock block for the rest of this season and look to do a build next year.

 

evo pulls away nicely from the wagon. (know that the wagon has a bigger turbo). always love to see this car run.

 

Yea, I believe it has on a 6262...we both did a best of 11.0 that day.
I'm sure come next meet we'll be at it again...this time in the 10's

 

yea its a 6262... just thought that he wud give u trouble up top end. but seem it was the other way around lol. Do you plan to stick to the red when you build the motor? or you switching to a black or higher?

 

I think I'm going to stick with the red for a little longer, for me it's a perfect balance between a street/strip turbo given my goals. Maybe later on down the road I may try one of those new ball bearing variants FP now has.

 

is there a lot left in the red? will a built motor give u a lot more?

 

There's definitely more left in the Red, I think right now my limitations aren't the turbo...but more so running out of fuel and the 6spd box.
Building the motor would not only be for safety, but I'd probably go with something like a high comp 2.1L so the turbo wouldn't have to work so hard.
But for now I'm not changing anything for the next meet, what I think I'll do is plan on heading down to west on the Sat instead for test and tune, since trying to get in practice runs on the day of the meet is next to impossible.
You attending the next meet?
