I have been driving it off and on. I am in the process of upgrading the suspension and transmission to a LSD.
Lots of pictures on my website.

I want to take it to the midamerica fun fest in 2 weeks but it will be tight as the damn Carrera GT rear flares are a PITA.
I have been to the drag strip a couple times. Traction is a problem even with micky thomson 9.5 ET tires. Best is 12.9 at 112 MPH.
I have dynoed close to 400 HP without going over 18Lbs of boost so I knwo this should be into the 11's if I can get some traction. _________________ Bob Ward

The links don't appear to be working.
What year and model is your engine from? |
