Just Another Junk Box Build Drag Car Style!!
#413
Thanks Everyone for the compliments! It was a great weekend and a fun trip and I'm looking forward to going back out there in August for the Shootout. I will be back out at the track in a couple weeks.
Here is my 8.96@162mph pass from Sunday. Car got a little loose in 3rd gear but stayed in it and turned out to be a good pass. The pass the plug popped, that would have been an 8.8 pass for sure. This is just the beginning and I'm really excited to bring the car back out. Stay tuned for more!

Time for one of these bad boys so you stop blowing out freeze plugs. Will free up some HP too. :-)

UPDATE!!!
It's been awhile since I've updated this thread with the Junk Box. As most of you know, a few weeks back I set a new PB going 8.96@162mph. At the track in Ohio, I was en route to my new PB, but blew a freeze plug on that pass. No doubt in my mind the car was going 8.8 or quicker. But it didn't happen but it didn't get me down. I am glad I went out there and came back with a new PB time.
Car is all ready to go and were anxious to get the car back to the track. I plan to be at the track this weekend, but there is a big event here KOTS this Saturday which I always attend to watch. Since I am going to KOTS Saturday, I will most likely push back track day with the Junk Box the following weekend. I am stoked to get this car back to the track.
In the meantime, I have been messing around with my DD EVO 9. A recap of the car, the car went 12.11@111mph a couple months back with a exhaust, intake, lower pipe and pump gas tune on 23PSI from Devin @ Boostin Performance. We went on a cold day, 20+ mph headwind, car was just spinning on my 17" street tires. I was still impressed with the time for it being a 3 bolt on car full weight and everything.
I brought the car back out to the track this weekend for fun. I went with a few buddies to see what it could do. I added injectors/pump and a E85 tune from Devin @ Boostin. I also threw on a AGP Intercooler I got for $100 bucks used and the car made 360whp on Devins Mustang Dyno. I said I would be happy with 350whp and once we made 360, we stopped. Went out to the track Friday night, first pass went 11.68@116MPH. I was pretty happy with the results. I raced full weight, full interior, seats ETC. I made a few passes total that night and my best pass was 11.59@117mph. The car runs amazing, pulls very strong and for the mods it has, I was very happy with running mid 11s. I plan to get a grimspeed so boost doesn't fall off as much and maybe a few things. I would like to get a set of drag radials/QTPs and see if I can go bottom bottom 11s with just these bolt ons, but will see.
Here is a quick pic someone from the track took for me. Jason (AngryEvo8) was there with me and got all the passes on video. He said he will upload the 11.5 pass ASAP. Here is my first pass of the night which was the 11.6. Car still spins a lot. These tires aren't the best. We lowered the 2-step and tire pressure down for my 11.5 pass. I also have some GoPro videos from that night as well.
Clocks are off due to it being a no ET event RSD. It is an event where you race street race like races on the track, but there is test and tune which I mostly ran.
First pass 11.6.
