Great Job 2KL! I guess I won't be running you side by side anytime soon

I still haven't gotten a chance to get back up there yet, are they still running Sunday T&Ts?

Silver-Y2K-SVT

The track is at 80' elevation I believe if it was Maryland International, and about 9 hrs from Cincy...

Meant to do this before, but after reading this post I finally went out and looked at my boost acutator. My stock setting has the lever fully seated on the stop. If I understand Bob, quicker boost can be attained by raising the lever just barely off the stop. Is that right Bob? (nice runs Brandon!!)

Thanks for all the kind words.

Yes Sunday at MIR is Test and Tune. I like going friday night becuase it is fun to bracket race the L. This past friday when i had my best time, I also got a trophy for making it for rounds. They give you the choice of a trophy or a free pass to run the next weekend, but the L was just calling for the trophy so i got it for her....

Good run Brandon. I'll get down there soon. I am going 10-6, tho', even if I have to borrow money. This refinance is painful. Did you have your helmet on??? Check out SVT Performance. JDM is supposed to have a new Eaton coming out around Xmas with 15 or so lbs of boost.2-3k I bet. Says it'll add 55 hp. Did you get my email about the 10-6 event. He said c'mon. PoohBear u2. I hope I get a 13.8 or better. Should be down to 13.3 or 4 seeing as mine is black.

Yes I had my helmet on, after i made my second run, they yelled at me so i put it on for the remainder of the night. I didn't get your email about the 10-6 event (can you send it again?) Is that a tuesday? I will be there if you send me the details. Trying to get my stocker into the 13.4's

JL,

How many miles do you have on your modifications? Does any of this really take its toll on the internals of the drive line as far as dependability is concerned? Or does it really change it much from how dependable a supercharger is in the first place?

Thanks,

Sam
