TurboTrix HP61 picutres and time...

Well, I finally got around to taking a few pictures of the red turd's engine bay...

So far my best time at the track out of 3 runs was a 7.32@95.67. Traction was a big issue in first and I need either a higher rev limiter or shift to 4th by the end of the track.

Yes, it is an 1/8 mile. I would estimate 1/4 time to be an 11.0-11.2.

instead of wrapping the radiator pipe with exhaust wrap, you should wrap those headers... it makes a HUGE difference in engine bay temps, plus i'm certain it will keep your EGTs hotter thus faster spool.

Yikes i on the oil feed line that could only be about 6" shorter. Looks great though, I just super picky about hoses and wires

Ever dyno the car on straight pump?

I suggest thermo-coating your exhaust manifold instead of wrapping them.

I have heard stories of people getting their wrapping wet which would interact with the heat off the manifold causing cracks.

That's if you drive your car in the rain.

Just my opinion.
