Wow i missed a lot in here haha... i am doing more weight reduction as i have the funds available. Next up is a 15x7 wheel with 24.5x8 slicks. I dont need the speed in the back half the 26" tires give so im opting for smaller tires to make the car accelerate quicker. Goal is to have the car down to 2800 with me in it. Puredrive, I am currently sitting at 409/406 in vd with the stock 8.5 turbo and stock motor valvecover to oil pan. Im running a lot more boost than most (it kept making power and wasnt knocking so i kept going higher) at around a 32 psi spike and settling at around 27 at 7k. Power holds fairly flat but i need to tune the afr a bit more as its not quite where i want it. I have pulled most of the disposable weight i wish to do without already and will be keeping the doors intact with the electric windows and locks, ac, carpet, and stock passenger front seat. My seat will be changed to a Kirkey aluminum drag seat for track duty and passenger and rear seats will be removed. Also strongly considering a fuel cell mounted in the spare tire well with a set of twin external modded walbro 255s to shed some extra poundage. Sorry to get off topic there but sometimes knowing the build helps. I want to try for 10s stock motor but after was considering going to a large frame turbo but just seeing where some money could be saved and this idea popped up. Thanks for the help!
