So last time I posted (last week) I had achieved an 10.965, I went this week with plan of seeing if I could repeat this number so I could find out what my combo is worth.

So today (my birthday!!) I ran at drags again 4 runs total

RUN 1


RUN 2


RUN 4


Now the eagle eyes amongst you would go what happened to run 3!!!

Well 3rd gear burnout good launch!!! 10.758 @ 131.13mph 1.566 60ft



Who needs a cam!!!
Ran a modified LSA tourer on my 2nd run talk about close!!!!


What can I say all these cammed upper/lower pulley cars running and mine lower pulley only sticking it to em!!!!

Cheers Procar and big thumbs up to Forced Induction Interchillers keeping me cool!!!

I've mentioned previously, it is 28% or 10" with ATI balancer.
You gotta be cooling car with lot more boost.

I am contemplating fitting 2.55 upper with 9.17 lower and possible water injection but it is a cost basis.
Figure doing these and retune should be 10.4 in it stock cam heads throttle body and unported blower/snout.

Ported snout/blower and throttle body adds up to approx 50rwhp

Yeah, I couldn't remember which pulley it was. I have 18 & 22% pulleys kicking around waiting for me to fit, along with a BTR3 cam and ID850 injectors. Might get a dremel as well and port the TB. I do also need to get a chiller at some point too.

It's like what do I do now!!
Original goal was 600rwhp and hi 10's
Not made 600rwhp but have gone beyond my time expectations.

I have chance of 2.55upper and 9.17lower just gotta figure if the extra heat/boost trade off acceptable
Be going from 13/13.5 psi to 16psi so researching what times etc.

Seems 10.4 or 5 is realistic

Also can get my hands on fully ported blower & snout and 102 throttle body but it's $$$
I don't have.

If do that then I'd slap a small cam in and get low low 10's
Where does it end

I am reluctant to change the upper as it is small enough as is. A larger cam will drop boost pressure and related heat build up whilst gaining a hefty wedge of power. Going to go full custom cam at some point but btr3 is a nice intermediate for now.

yeah I still think keep my 10" (28%) just thinking look at a small cam (not LS9) will net about more.
But then the stock cam is really good low down.
Car drives real good now on road I average 12.5ltrs per 100km and do 90km a day on commute on mix of motorway/stop start driving.
