Just remember what you said, "...and I probably had some knock."

Remember, boost is more addictive than crack.

Must have more boost!!!

Hopefully i can do it again. the last couple of times i've been down to the track and for day to day driving i use a lower boost setting. seems to work. i can still run 14.5's all night on 13lbs of boost.

Jon

17lbs of boost, with your setup? Dude, this is just my $.02 but........What are you thinking?? What octane gas are you running? Your a lot "braver" than me.

man, those are awesome times! im automatic, and im trying to get into the 13's without any major modification to the transmission, such as torque converter upgrade. anyhow... im running:

boost monkey @ 16psi
3" cat back exhaust with one cat eliminated (straight pipe)
turbo xs uppipe with cat emininated
3/16th

im looking in a few more mods for the future. i got to race my friend who ran a 14.67 at the track, and i ran him for fun, and i totally crushed him by about 2 BUS lengths, and this was before the uppipe. when i raced him the week before, i got him off the line and he caught up and beat me by about 2 cars, but this was before the boost monkey. anyhow, after the boostmonkey, i totally crushed him(7-8 cars if not more). im hoping of doing at least a 14.5 at the track this season! if i can get lower, ill be very happy!

Yup very happy with it.. However the PowerMeter-iD isn't much without the SBC-iD. PowerMeter-iD is similar to a G-Tech I guess! I have the second version of this combo and for the most part it's pretty sexy!

I thought that I was going to be setting new records that night but lately, I haven't been running good until the end of the night and right when it hits 11:55 pm and I hit a 14.0? @ 103MPH and go around for the next run and I run a 14.00 with a 2.333 60'@ 104 MPH (and hit boost cut right at the end). I knew that run had to be a 13.7~13.8 run since my 13.82 @ 104MPH was a 2.36, so I go around again and they close the ****en track on me.. DAMMIT!!!!! OH WELL!
