We do not not have the details of the mods, but I am sure they considt of:

Pulley
Headers
Throttle Body
HE / Pump

The normal stuff... You dont get in the 10's without all the goodies, and then some!!

Maybe LOWPROFILE will post up once he is done grinnin ear to ear!

as of a year ago theres were lowprofile's mods. I think its safe to say Bruce @ TTM kept on working his magic putting together a really fast car! If I still lived in New England I would for sure have made some trips down to TTM. Awesome job BK, Bruce and OE.

Got this quote from a post just over a year ago.

Quote: Forgot to add mods:
82mm t/b, w/stock 80mm y-pipe, stock snorkels, wix paper filters (15 mth old)
Chiromikeys old ASP 178 pulley
MBH headers, w/stock secondary cats, resonator and mufflers (installed by TTM)
Prototype TTM h/e
OE Tuning box tune (TTM dealer)
Hoosier drag radials, daily drivers on front.

Great, Great, Great Day!!!

Fast times with good friends makes for lasting memories.

Sorry, I haven't posted but this just went down yesterday, and I needed a day to catch back up. I will start a fresh thread with all the slips, and the splits for those interested.
Before that, a heartfelt Thank You to a couple sponsors already mentioned, Bruce of TTM, and Jeremy of OE Tuning.
Another Thank You to my friends who helped make this come together, including members LOCO, MThis, and Bramage to name a few.

I'll be back shortly. Thanks to everyone for the nice comments and accolades.

recap...basically, a guy in a car stops at a light and then it turns green and he takes off really fast and then a sign flashes and reads 10.79...there were no naked ladies in this video

Ha, I thought the same! On that pass BB nailed a solid 1.57. Slips will be posted this morning. There is a 6.94 @ 101 1/8th in there!

Edit: Correction, 1.567 60ft on that pass!!! D'oh!!!

Thank you Craig. You are off to a strong start and I'm confident you will break into the 10's before the years end.

Just need a few minutes to compose a new thread and not leave anyone out who contributed. As it is, I'm kicking myself for leaving out Ron from my orginal "thank you" post.
Ron, Thank You so much for wrenching and supporting our effort! My apologies for screwing up my other post.
