Great job Chris, It sounds a lot better than the first fire up. Are you driving it or trailing it? In those earlier pictures.

Driven! Actually pretty pleasant on the highway. Super tall gearing has 5th gear turning only ~2800rpm @ 60mph

I was driving up and down 90 and 53 all day today and I though I seen it or a car like yours. Congrats on the magazine article too. It should be a nice car on the track and Hwy.

No more baby boost now that I can get some heat in these tires. I think it's time for some 26x11.5 QTPs up front..

Creeping up on the rpm at 29-31psi. Going to call it a night.

Thinking about running through 9250rpm tomorrow, same boost, but WOT and maybe pull some fuel.

Even with the warmer pavement, these 140 wear RS3s just aren't up to the job at this power level. Probably stiffer LCA bushings and traction bars too.. car made 600whp @ 8500rpm on a Mustang dyno with only 25-26psi and a bit leaner.. That's ~24whp/psi boost and my IATs are still barely getting more than 10*F above ambient.

This additional 6psi boost already dialed in plus another 750rpm could put her well north off 700whp on even the stingiest dyno.

All on factory rods and pistons LOL
