Well, I went down to the drag strip today. It was a perfect day to go here in Seattle, it's sunny, and in the mid 50s. Not bad for Seattle! I was able to get in 9 - 10 runs before my clutch started to slip real bad. Anyway, here are a few of my best times....
My best time....
R/T - .649
60' - 1.988
330 - 5.595
1/8 - 8.560
MPH - 84.69
1000 - 11.075
1/4 - 13.211
MPH - 106.05
My next best time....
R/T - .624
60' - 2.099
330 - 5.749
1/8 - 8.689
MPH - 84.79
1000 - 11.204
1/4 - 13.332
MPH - 106.53
And a few other runs....
60' - 2.104
1/4 - 13.418
MPH - 102.74
60' - 2.058
1/4 - 13.456
MPH - 105.28
60' - 2.139
1/4 - 13.425
MPH - 107.27
I had a few other runs in the 13s. I was the fastest import there. All of my mods are in my sig.

13.7, that is what I thought it was. You never ran it after you got the N1 on there?
I will have vids of some of the runs in here pretty soon, I'm waiting for a friend to edit out all of the crap.

I need do get my 60' times down, I think they are a bit high. I wonder how long my turbo will last, It already had alot of end play. I'd say almost 1/8" in and out, and about 1/16" side to side. But it wasn't making any noise, and in 4th gear it was getting up to 15 psi. My car was running a bit warm (about the middle of the temp gauge), so I think I'll toss the fan shroud in tomorrow.

Well, I have no boost controller, and the next $300 - $400 I spend will be for a clutch. I was running my SAFC a bit rich under hi throttle, plus the big IC has got to help too. I kind of kept my eye on the A/F gauge, and it seemed that it was running pretty rich. Neither the turbo or the engine seemed to have any complaints, only the clutch.
