Nice, so you gonna compete in stock appearing class this year?
Depends upon how much side revenue I can acquire. :rollinglaugh:
My "next round" mods list should put the car around 450-500awhp on E-85 easily, which would be fun as it is using TD04 based turbochargers. However that list is expensive and only time will tell. Going to use E-85 and stock sidemounts (unless I can find a cheap FMIC setup) to keep it "stealth"
I am in no rush to complete the project, but some snow would be great for my plowing side job! Otherwise, hopefully there will be some additional tuning/building opportunities this spring as well to supplement this vehicle.
Otherwise, I will be at the proving grounds pit crewing for John's Galant VR4, either way I plan on going.

Nice. The bar set from previous years says stock appearing will be 12.0 and quicker.
what you think you could run with that much power?

14.0-11.0 @100-125mph depending upon tires, clutch, tune, vehicle final weight, time of day, windspeed, cruising knots (this is a boat still :rollinglaugh:)

LOL, I that's about the size of it...
I would suspect the winner of SA this year will be in the 11.2 range, based on conversation from esteemed message boards as this.

More goodies to the build:
3" SS downpipe ordered (shipped)
Deatschwerks 1000cc injectors ordered
Fuel lab "mini" FPR ordered
DW301 pump ordered
AN y-fitting ordered
AEM Wideband sensors ordered
Center Gauges on stand-by
Now for some fabrication (intercooler piping, fuel rails, cat-back), porting (intake manifold, turbine housings, exhaust manifolds), fuel line layout and creation, and a few final pieces to be ordered (boost control solonoid, FMIC) and it is go time! Should be ready by April no problem.
Looks like E-85 + all supporting fuel mods + stock turbo's to start, see if I can figure out a way to upgrade TD04's before the proving grounds, if not, should be "Fun" on the 9b's.
Most I've heard of with 9b's was 379hp/480TQ. Car is thinned out and turns 10.9@124! I won't be anywhere near close to that, in fact I'll be happy with low 12's to start, haha!
Any plans to do BIR or even some Auto X with this beast? I would think the DCTC course would be fun in this car!

I might try the road course at the MAP event and maybe a DCTC event or two for fun. The car WILL NOT be competitive for the mods compared to the class, but I will have fun. :bengals:
The added advantage of increased timing should make for a really torque monster down low.
