Looks good!! Any numbers to report?

I was wondering how many views it would take before someone asked, over 100 views , not many drag racers here I guess. It ran 11.55 @123 mph leaving on no boost,lousy 60' times , it will be faster next year but pretty good for the fist time to the track. Ran straight as an arrow ,was very pleased with the handling at speed.

Very nice. I see the plates. Is it still street driven too?

I was hoping to see the video, but doesn’t show for me. Just get a “broken link” type gif.

Link to video is broken for me too. What is that gleaming through at the bottom on the picture, a huge intercooler?

2.0 turbo ecotec with a larger turbo, still daily street driven , not a gutted race car. I had a full thread on here but the photobucket scam destroyed it. I did not post a video link? I do have one video but its not that great leaving on no boost,I'll see if I can post it. That is a large heat exchanger for the liquid intercooler out back.

Looks like a blast. Takes a bit to find that sweet spot for takeoff. I remember first run I did with my PT GT. I spun all of first, most of 2nd and chirped into 3rd. It was heavy and had loads of torque. Fastest time I got with it was 14.81 in 1/4.

I do have a huge build thread here but it is totally useless because of photobucket deleting mine and everyone's photos .

There's a browser add in that changes the way the requests to photobucket are made and allows the photos to be displayed - I have that and it was working recently so if that build thread is here, I'll go and take a look.

Thanks.

I just did a google chrome fix for photobucket and it works thanks for the info, oh its not a 5 speed anymore changed to an auto for better drag racing consistency.

Awesome! You're trapping 127, so about 320-340 HP? Are you still able to street drive it? How much did weight distribution change and do you pop wheelies when you get on it hard on street tires?
