Did the Turbo have sport chrono (you see a stopwatch on the dash that sticks up like an ugly wart right in the middle...???)
The way you described it makes it tough for some owners to swallow, he shouldn't have lost THAT badly...

The pulley adds how much HP from stock at the wheels? Are you certain the fuel metering is able to keep up? I would be cautious as the FGT guys have to do some tricks when they change the pulleys - injectors, FPR IIRC. 11.4 is a great time, but that 60ft is amazing.

Speaking of cars which should respond well to modifications, consider the upcoming "Blue Devil" corvette. Even if they keep the weight constant at 3100 lbs, the tuning potential for that car (6.2L S/C V8) is astounding.

The fuel system on the gt500 is good for 750rwhp with a boost a pump. After that we need larger injectors.
I intend to shave at least another .2-.3 off that with no more mods. That was done at my first time out with those mods.

take a look here to see how a boost a pump works. http://www.kennebell.net/accessories...boostapump.htm

Regardless, my order's been in for quite a while.

Damn dgussin1, you sure riled some people up in here. Pullied GT500 and dgussin's driving FTW!
Better bask in the glow of victory while you can though. You know when I'm done with the "Streets" video (remember, the one that shows O-Ace's modded TT911 flying up on you after you initially pulled out two cars), the Porsche guys here are gonna be able to give you a little flak. Until you get the KB that is.
Shank, check our local board for tonight's spot. You can bring the new Porsche (I didn't realize you had a new one until yesterday) and try to rough up Dave down Mexico way.
