Wondering how much it has cost to get the car to that point? Must be a fortune! Good luck to you and stay safe.

I am curious also as on the website the cams and heads are North of 12,000 and I would think that there was a little labor to go on that also. So I know you get a deal on stuff but to the average guy pricing stuff out this seems pretty darn close.

Dads, that is sick... congrats!! I have 3 questions (if you don't mind me asking):

- What tires are you using?
- How are you launching?
- On what mode are you shifting?

I have hard times getting below 2.0 sec 60' even with Nitto 555r 285s. I made like 46 passes and got two passes below 2.0 and they were high 1.9s(pathetic).

Thanks!!

Where did you get the $20000 Figure??

last I checked the Blower from Weistec (Which Is currently being shipped to me) retails for $14999.


Heads: $4500, Cams: $8000, totaling around $12000

As for installation and labor. I am pretty sure getting the Heads and cams will require more labor and time to install than the Weistec blower.

It just me, But I really dont like opening the internals of my engine.

Anyway, good luck with whatever you do. I will be following your beast. we all love it.

I run Hoosiers all the time. Either drag radials or all out slicks.
I actually had some 60's in the high 1.58 and 1.59 range.

I race in manual mode all the time with traction control off.

Looks like it was a great day but you really need to get that thing to a proper track. Florida conditions are holding you back more than we realize and a nice dose of negative x000 DA without our ever present humidity would be amazing.

Traction was a problem as it got colder. Was about 35F last night at Atco.

When the guy came over to me in the staging lanes I thought it was bye bye time because I just ran an 11.27. He wanted to take pictures and asked me my mods and for permission to post it on their Facebook page.

Atco is great like that. If it was Englishtown, I would have been tossed.
