Ej's stang is a friggin beast and let me tell you, it was quite a sight to see him in the rearview mirror when he got done blistering the tires through the 1/8th mile, the front end rose up and started the chase. Good times, I don't think I've shifter faster in my life. He's been out there laying down rubber/vht ever since our race and claims he's going to drag the bumper next time haha. So I'm not going to get too comfortable in the #1 spot...a built shorty, head and bigger cams are already on the way. Thus far I've regulated it to 93 octane camel piss, but I'm looking forward to seeing what it'll do with 40psi on c16 with the new goodies. I'll still be short 400whp but it should slow his roll so it doesn't look like I pulled the chute before the finish line when he blew my doors off.

Glad to have you. I sent you a PM, id like to get up with some of you guys when were in Memphis.

good to see you on hpj!.....that mustang pulls hard as shit after the 1/8th

yep, there was a local invite only track day and EJ took the stang...he wont tell me what it ran but he said they finally got the bitch to hook and book so it's going to be interesting at our next video shoot, I just hope I have the new bits in the evo and tuned before then.

my immediate goal is ~ 550awhp or 10.99 @ 130+ on 93 octane daily driver mode. It's already gone 100mph in the 1/8th on pump but it had a bum clutch and wouldn't let me shift into 4th quickly and it took a second to respool so I think it'll be quite easy.

the HTA 35R completely maxed out @ 40psi on race gas is going to be 650-700awhp and very few people accomplish that. I'm looking for a turbo that will put me in the 700awhp minimum to 800awhp range now.
