The ported blower is sitting on my bench in the garage waiting to get tossed on. I’m gonna try and get sub 6 before I do that. I short shifted out of 2nd cause of wheel spin.

What rear tire are you running?

Toyo R888Rs.

R888r's are bad ass tires, but at the 800-850+ mark you might want to grab a set of MT Street Ss or a true DR with a softer sidewall.

I have a set of MT's on mine right now and they'll hold my 850 setting from a slow roll which produces a mid 5 sec 60-130.

The more power you make, the less choices you have as it relates to rear tires.

Yeah, at this time I have begrudgingly decided to stick with the Toyos.

Mickey doesn’t make a tire that’s gonna fit my set up and I don’t wanna go fat tire or change up suspension mods. I like the car as it sits and I want to be ready if I decide to do that I don’t want to turn it into a drag monster .

I just wanna lay down some sick 13 second passes at 180 miles an hour

Can't disagree there. That was my goal as well.

Update: Added the SPE fuel rails, Had the blower ported by Kong Performance. Installed, no leaks, car is running well. I haven’t romped on it since I’m pretty sure it’s lean as **** right now.

Headed down to Palm Beach Dyno Thursday morning for an E85 Tune.

Power numbers coming soon. Stay tuned.
