That's mighty ambitious. I'm surprised I haven't broken my car yet, and I only just got into the 13's.

I use reliable in a very loose way.
That was the whole point of doing twin turbos, they will flow tons of air at low boost, the reason for buying the trans, etc...
Hell if it will go out and run 10's i will be happy...

Don't get me wrong Bobby. I am not trying to say how fast the car will or wont be or anything. I just know that 9 second cars break parts often. I am sure that any one with a 9 second car would agree, but hey there is a first for everything. Good luck, you have your work cut out for you.

Yeah, I'm not dumb.
Breaking things is part of the game with drag racing.
Will it run a 9? i donno yet. Will it run consistantly? i donno. Do I have the skill to pilot the thing? i guess we will just have to wait and see what it does.
Tom, it all depends on when the trans gets in. They have been giving me the run around for a month now on when they are going to assemble/ship the thing. Pretty damn annoying...
Trust me, you will know when she is complete
