Fantastic runs, I love the fact your are just going out and doing it!!
This IS the good stuff after someone spends as much time, energy, and money
as you have on a great build.

Thanks!
That will be one of my next upgrades.

Is this AWD or RWD? Is it 3.6L or 3.8L? I am guessing a 3.8L with 1.6Bar. Timing is good. Nice video.

3.6L at 1.15 BAR, RWD. My 1.6 BAR run (with different BOV springs, different tires and different fuel) was 4.74.

Scott,
Earlier I meant to ask you what kind of 60-130 times you were getting doing one shift instead of two...

I'm normally 2 to 3/10's slower with 1-shift, due to where in the rpm range my car is when I start in 3rd (sicne my peak horsepower is made at redline or 7,900 rpm).

If I switch from my current .82 A/R hot housings to my set of .63 A/R hot housings (which I'm considering), I would probably be faster with 1-shift than I am with 2....but may lose power up top.

I plan on continuing to tinker and adjust things on my car until I find the best overall setup for my specific purposes.

Video stuff...
Scott,
How about pointing the camera at the tach and speedo to give them a better reference, then possibly a quick shot of the Vbox and the peak boost readings right after the run.
Awesome run on pump gas. Congratulations. Those 35R's are pretty happy on the lower boost stuff ;p

Scott, Nice run.. with those numbers why risk cranking the boost ...I think the Key to these cars running better numbers are the higher RPM's ..
