Albert... Awesome driving!!! That car of yours sure does respond well to mods! Congrats buddy! I am so happy for you.

Since you leaked the info, I'll leak the dyno charts.. LOL..

My heads will be done in the next couple of weeks.. And we've got quite a few more things coming out to put that puppy into the low 10s!!

I've been working on a bunch of things and the ECU tuning has been one of those ongoing things for me. I think we've got a file that works and Albert's car is a true testament to that.

Albert's car is a simple pulley, shorty headers, cooling pump & front mount exchanger, VRP 80mm TB and ECU tune so keep that in mind when you see the dyno below!

Here are the 2 dynos of his little beast! 1st pull is mods listed above.. 2nd pull includes a little shot of the giggle gas.. Enjoy!

Come on man, why throw down the compliment with the qualifier?? A great run occurred, with NOS or without the timeslips are amazing. Of course anyone can use NOS but how many really do? Its not cheating if it can be done ... IMO

Check out the dyno charts without NOS- scary stuff. Awesome Awesome run!!

Sorry but that's the way I've always felt about NOS. I'm sure you guys would check me, if I used it.

Dynos are retarded! plain sickness & I'm more impressed on the 1st dyno w/out spray, truely remarkable for mods listed

i'm definitely NOT trying to take anything away here but the motor only dyno might be a bit misleading since it uses std correction factor. i wonder why the operator used two differenct correction factors between the runs?

i've also been told that using nos on blower motors gives you extra bang for the buck...almost 1.5:1 and these graphs seem to back that up.

No problem i can respect that and thanks for the compliments. I have always been of the mentality of run what you brung and hope you brung enough.

Until the turbos go on the NOS will have to do.

Good point: Everyone seems to post std on the forums. I would always post both.

That was my fault for looking at different correction factors and printing the wrong one.
It made 535.80 hp and 584.83 torque uncorrected. The sae numbers were in the 520's.

Before I say anything.......I have to say a big CONGRATS!!!!
That is absolutely an incredible run either way!!!
I must say...your "VRUS tune" truely has me curious?
I know you have the added cooling now....but w/out the juice I believe our beasts are comparable.....You make me want your tune man!!!!!

You have truely raised the bar for us S. Florida guys! Thank You!!!
I'm going to want to pic your brain about that tune!
I'm in my car for the long haul, so juice will never happen. But if I can get to 11.3 @125 with your tune, it will be an honor to be #2 behind what you've done in the way of performance!
CongratsAlbert - I know you've worked hard to get there.....truely a #1 first rate time and run!!

Thanks for the props Ken. Victor and I have both commented on your ride. Your car with an asp or larger pulley and vrus software will definitely trap some sick numbers. We are running very close trap speeds now and i have more boost than you.
You and Rock should definitely consider a larger pulley and the software. Under the right weather conditions 125-to high 126's are not only possible but probable for you guys. OMG and i forgot about the upcoming VRUS air box. I see some changes to that dragtimes list.

I predict easy 10's w/out juice but using twin turbo set-up
