One reason for poor short track times with the talon was the crappy 1 -2 gear ratio miss match.
I plan on rebuilding my clutch or getting a new one, I have a prototype synchrotech synchro set on order so once they start making them those will go into my trans. I plan on finishing the safety stuff I need. And maybe buying some AWDmotorsports spec D2 coilovers. I know this car with this power can run 9's. If I can get that 1-2 shift down it will make it. Once I start running as fast as I can with this power i'll turn the boost up and see how deep it can go.

By looking at the slip of the 10.029 slip the car went ET quicker with less mph than your 10.003 pass. It will happen just keep trying.

Maybe go up to a 67mm and make more power and it will be back half quicker with more mph.
I love this 64, its hard to beat the spool on the street with this 2.3l lol. I plan on eventually going with a Magnus or AMS intake manifold at some point which should help out, I want to get this ported intake my friend did into the 9's first though. I'm excited to see what next year will bring!
