Doubt it. We'll see how tweaking goes with Ryan tonight on real E-85. Then dial in the 2-step and NLTS setup and its as good as its going to get by the track date. I may rent a hour of dyno time to just validate a few things prior to the event if the virtual dyno numbers are close to the record. Problem is the car is still very heavy and will be as it will retain creature comforts, over time it will lighten up, but I don't foresee it dropping below 3500lbs. Sub 12.5=happy. Sub 11.99=goal achieved.

Then I'll start to think about cam gears and larger turbo's. Problem is I can't decide if I want to start with a mild upgrade, like 13t's (can get into a low mileage set ready to bolt on for $1000ish) or HT12 wheels with clipped turbines (rebuilt for $900, with bolt-on), or save the $2200+ for DR650's that have been known to put down 500awhp on pump....

Maybe I'll just throw nitrous at it.
