Here is a screen shot from the data log

8,450 Rpms 16.75 degrees of timing and 38.2 lbs of boost.... Holy Street Car Batman! That is gangster

We have our homework to do now that we have some great data! We learned a lot this weekend and it was good to see the chassis taking that power on the first hit! I will also be building a new exhaust system for the car
I should have everything back up and ready to go for testing next week before our first Ultra Street race where we will be strapping the new Billet Ysi on the car

My balls just went into their hiding place.

This is why I could never drive and was actually kinda glad when my attempt at doing so ended in a burned engine.
Congratulations. You da Man!

Don't forget the lack of intercooler... It made 9 lbs more boost total as compared to last year.
Impeller speed is 6,050 rpms faster this year as compared to last.

I'm almost concerned about the acceleration rate with the rear gearing too. We shall see if it's a bit more manageable with the Ysi-b than the 105. Should be testing next week for the following weekends race

At this point Nick, I'm not sure there's much you can do that would disqualify it. I would say that as long as it has cup holders*, it's a street car.



*LOL...
