FP Red to FP Black
Tony, I told you at the track your car nosed over on the big end due to old crappy spark plugs, you can hear it in the video it missfired going into 4th gear. You didn't run it again after that since you got the boot for no roll bar. You were at 100mph in the 1/8th mile. You lost 3-4mph due to the missfire you had, not to mention I'm sure it pulled some timing from the missfire. And you still went 126mph. Math adds up you should have gone 129-130mph had it not missfire on you.
Happens sometimes with stock ignition if you hit the NLTS limiter too hard on E85. E85 get's very picky if you hit any kind of rev limiter. Somtimes it won't and other times it will. But on stock ignition and old spark plugs, I wasn't surprised at all it missfired.
Don't be so eager to give up so quickly with your current setup. You have extremely mild weak cams for your stroker, half of your intercooler piping is still STOCK!
We had horrible weather that day at the track, it was hot, humid and corrected DA was garbage at 6500+ft.
I would spend money else where before pulling the trigger on another turbo. Get a better set of cams, get some I/C piping and try it again.
