Hey Rusty, Sal here. Sorry this took so long to respond, I have been searching all over for my timeslips since the move. I run 8.50s at 82 mph in the 1/8. That's with the PSP chip and PSP filter and Nittos for off the line traction. I've massaged a best 60ft of 1.91, with average in the mid 1.90s. The truck is all stock otherwise, no exhuast as of yet.
