The old "Ifarted2" Paul Nelson Drag 8 had been sitting for years until Atif decided to resurrect it this year and make the old beast do some work. The best it ever ran was an 8.99@167 on a 42R, single scroll, and synchro back in 2008.
This year it ran an 8.7@174 at the shootout in shakedown and then reset the 4 cylinder and Sedan records in the standing 1/2 mile at 213.47 mph. This was with a PPG dogbox and custom 5th on the tall 4.15 final drive.
Specs -
EnglishRacing Solid 2.0 Aluminum rod
EnglishRacing Race port head
GSC 1mm valves/springs/S3s
Magnus V5 Intake manifold
x8 Fuel Injector Clinic 2150s
Magnus Mechanical fuel pump bracket
Aeromotive Red mechanical pump
Lots of custom work
and here it is uncorrected -
Here is some video of it and our other cars in action at the Shift Sector Airstrip Attack in McMinnville OR in Sept.
This is the highest horsepower Evo without nitrous for the boost level, 56psi, that I know of. Especially given that it is on a 72mm turbo and not a 76mm at 69psi and spraying on top of it. I would like to see the uncorrected non nitrous numbers for other cars to compare.
