Here's a cruising vid for ya:

http://www.azchatfield.net/Pictures/...2020080315.wmv

I was supposed to hit the dyno this afternoon, but turns out one of the axleshafts was too short (popped apart during a burnout last Sat) so the axle is on it's way back to the East Coast to be fixed.

Last Sat I took it to the track with the goal of figuring out how to tune the AEM EMS's boost control. That goal was accomplished and the car ran 12.2@119, still on a base tune. I had the "street slicks" (M&H DOT's) on, aired up to 25psi, cutting 2.1 60's. It was close enough to the 11's that I wanted to shoot for a high 11, so I aired down and intended on getting a good burn-out when the axle popped apart.

Hofully the new axle will be here late next week or early the week after that and in 2 weeks I hope to be back at the dyno to find out how far I can go on pump gas (91 oct) + water/methanol injection.

It's not that I'm catching a lot of oil, just have the capacity for catching it.

That....is just so incredibly sexy. Is it an Auto trans? Good luck with your goals, please keep us informed. Your car is just insane, I absolutely LOVE the way it sounds. I wish I was in AZ so I could come by for a ride

Ultimate goal is 800+ whp and under 9.5.

The trans is the DCR Auto. Surprisingly it is MUCH more streetable than my old setup w/ the Clutchmasters FX700 race-clutch. I was worried that with the 3500rpm stall converter that it would be a PITA to drive on the street, but it's really not -- in fact I'd say that it's as driveable now as what it was stock -- only ALOT quicker.
