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.

my friend used to run a 12.6@114 and he could romp on vipers.

Is that a Mariah Cold airbox you have there?

Yes it is. I am planning on getting the vented headlight cover real soon to help push some cooler air in.

The numbers on the side were for my friend he is a big motorhead and I invited him to come race my car. He never drove it before and never Autocrossed before and won Novice race tire class with it.

j9fd3s - He could really walk vipers running a 12.6. I figured I would need a solid 11 second car to walk one.

I have the Mariah cold airbox on my car but I had to modify the holy hell out of it when it came. Did you have to do the same? It took them forever to get it to me and then when they did it did not fit worth a ****.

Mine fit fine no mods at all. The only thing I did to it was coat the engine side with silver A/C tape to repel heatsoak.

I now have insulated heat blanketing that I am going to coat it with.

A close up of the IC pipe coming through the front of car. We opened up the hole for the battery cooling duct:

I had my own IC made by turbonetics. I really do not like the Greddy one. It was too big and the piping was covong the brake ducts. I used the piping from the greddy kit and had over 5 feet extra after we were done. We used some of it for the intake.

Every time I try to link photos from Teamfc3s I get this error message. I hate to waste server space posting all these pics here. can someone pleas explain why this message comes up???
