I will get the car back up in the air and check everything over and switch to the good tires. Setup the shift light and the 2 step.

Rock falls Aug 7/8 is the next test day, I will try to make it out there. Then the next day is Aug 28/29.

The car weighs in at 2450 as swift said, I weigh 185, so it should be around 2600-2650 running down the track. The turbo setup and water to air setup weigh a lot.

LMAO, weighs a lot. Good luck man, let us know when you go out there I wouldn't mind seeing this action first hand.

The turbo is 45lbs, the exhaust manifold and WG's are another 40lbs, the W/A intercooler core, heat exchanger, lines, pump, and 4 gallons of water another 100lbs. That is about 185lbs total, but is weight that needs to be there, other wise I make no OMG hp, o wait I do not make OMG hp, zing.

shut it john. It's still more then 97% of people out there, and on this board. and it seems to work well together. It's been fun watching/helping were I can, seeing this go from stands/white bay, to the tubed moon taxi grocery getter it is now. Mount up those 2 rear seats, and make it an amusement park ride...

Back OT, I found a few 1/4 mile calculators and they say 8.8@153mph with 2600lbs and 740whp. So to address Brown mans question, I wanted 600whp, check, now I want to get as close to 8.8@153mph as I can then add more power.

Mike, BIR on wednesday nights require you to run street tires and a full exhaust.

I thought you needed to have exhaust that exits behind the driver to run on Wed night drags, My BFG tires are street tires but also they do NO track prep so I would slide all over. I have lined up a trailer for the 7th at Rock falls.

John, I have nothing going on that day if you'd like a helping hand or some moral support.

Good luck at the track, should be cool to see what it can run.
