Not anymore you're not, but I'm sure you'll remedy that.
And at 8.7psi, you were about 6mph and 6/10ths slower through the 1/8th than I was at 15psi. ;-)

What was your 1/8th times at 15psi? What about now? :poke:

a full liter of displacement makes a big difference under boost. Nice job.

What did you run last time out?
Take that number, add 5mph to it, and subtract 5/10ths (my math was wrong when I first commented...doing too many things at once). That's what I ran at 15psi (in the 1/8th).
;-)
Dude...numbers from my old setup are in my sig...no mystery there. I'm running more boost now.
I was pointing out that a 15 psi twin-screw car will not be slow.
That's all.
:thumbsup:

I never tested it at the track with my new setup but It should be better than your 15psi times :beer: So I guess your math might be off JK.

That would be one efficient FM.

It is. It only weighs about 3400 lbs w/out driver. Before the mods it was at 3300 lbs. I still have my full interior still, gotta love strippers :rolling:

You're missing the acronym.
How about FMIC?

You call that a front-mount?

And do you have to cut away the bumper like that in the F-bodies?
If so, that sucks...I'd give yourself plenty of following distance in traffic.

Don't quite know yet but i'll be finding out next week...:pepper:
I'm only running 8 lbs of boost.
Am I understanding this correctly. You have a turbo Ls1 without a dynotune you are not only driving it about but racing it also :uh oh:

Is that brave or stupid? Or have I totally missed something? :??:

I've had it tunned on a dyno but the numbers are going to be way diffrent now because I put the FMIC on last week and i'm upping the boost.

Cool :)

I didn't think you could be running a turbo with no tune at all, or with checking a/f. You running meth or a snow kit?

Nice kill. I looked into one of those kit when I had my SS. The supporting mods were too much (rear end and tranny upgrades). I sold it and bought this POS...;-)

Again nice kill.

I see no reason to disbelieve you beat on a pulley only Cobra. A KB Cobra will rip you a new one.


And a TT Camaro will rip a kb cobra a new one...what's your point? :shrug:
