I had it laid up for over a month working out some wastegate issues. They are all fixed now. It was a blast to drive it again. God I forgot how hard it pulls. I knew it would freak me out because my Mustang GT started to feel fast again.



It just nice to be driving it again. Since its been laid up I have sat next to various Porsches, 350Z's etc... driving my wifes Mustang. I even had a C-5 that rumpled and claimed to run high 11's next to me at a light when I was in the Mustang. I told him at the light I was not going to race him my Mustang was too slow. I was cursing I did not have my 7. There were people in the 4Runner behind us leaning out the window yelling at us to race too.



Welp its hunting season again..........

My best 14/ mile was a 12.6 with wastegate problems. My peak HP with said wastegate problems was 290RW. Now that its fixed I should see 360RWHP and my 1/4 mile will hopefully be in the high 11's.



Plus never believe people when they say they expect to run sertain times. Like me! I will find out for sure soon.



BTW - I have takenn apart many c-5's with this car. Yet to run a Z06 though but imagine I will give them a good run too.



Goal is to be able to take out a Viper.
