2.1 sounds like fun. the 2.3 is really fun though also.. im 100% happy and satisfied with the car right now.. im not touching the boost or the tune anymore.

cecil , maryland - also its going to buschur shootout in a trailer so i can beat the **** out of it.

how many passes will i get until im booted tho? if i go at night its gonna be around 630whp and 560wtq. that should make for some high mph passes in my car with its powerband.

Unless things have changed since I last went (2 years ago) , you won't get booted for going too fast unless you don't have a helmet. A friend of mine went 9.67 without a cage and they didn't say anything.

ok thats good to know. what about inspection? i have a optima in the trunk with no kill switch.. but the battery box is vented to the atmosphere.

i do have a helmet.

i might schedule to go to a local dynojet that has a good price for renting the dyno and build a base map with very low timing and start from scratch on the dyno and then compare it to my road tune.. that would be really cool. for sure the dyno will show power that i cant see/find on the road, but how much would be a cool thing to know/ find out.. so i may just do that.

first ill do a pull with my road tune then throw the base map on there and tune from scratch on dyno.. i think theres a good bit more to obtain in my car if i rescale the RPM axis and etc to further control the timing curve, but right now as is man the car rips.

regardless, it will go to the track before i even put it on a dyno. maybe next week .. def need to go before i go to ohio, because ive never ran down a track before so im gonna look like a total newb getting the car right in staging lane.

Very interesting videos. This seems pretty easy to do. I don't know much when it comes to this stuff, but do they sell ceramic ball bearing replacement kits for our turbos? Is it as simple as that to convert ?
