Dave, did you run? What kind of times?
the second was worse 14.2@ 105 I am still figuring it out. The secnd run I had a boost leak and was runnig only 12psi. I also bogged at the launch. The first time I went out I spun the tires through my first two gears. Next time I am gonna try to slip the clutch out some. I have been practicing around my house and i think i am better off with this slipping clutch approach. I am running on Nitto drag radials with 15psi in the rears. I belive that if i can get my *** in gear the car will run an 11. Now I won't even try to pretend that means its gonna happen. I hope to get 11's before I take these 99 twins off the car. We shall see

If you are doing this and you still cant get the car to stay put, install a linelock. It will cost +/- 110 and is easy to do.
Dave, it's addicting aint it! I cant wait to get my

Oh and Kevin, Race gas doesent really add any horespower alone. You could have turned up the boost more with the race gas though.

yeah, with race gas i turned it up to 1.4 bar. when i try to do a burnout i dump the clutch at around 6k and the rear starts sliding around. i might have to do a linelock so i can just sit in oneplace instead of moving all over the place. who wants to help me put one in 
kvn
line lock install
