ahahahaha, yeah sorry, rofl. 
And to think, I've only had this car since september, lol.  Got 3"dp to 2 1/2 stainless stinger duals and FMIC for it.  still looking for new BIGGER turbo, lol

Hey bhazard, how did you only manage to get your car to a 15.47?  I pretty much had stock everything other than the cone filter and gilis valve and went 14.97@90 with stock turbo.  course I DID have a 2.02 60', lol




Cause I never went down the track before in my life, I had bald tires, and a slipping old clutch (it didnt last much longer after I ran the car) and I didnt have a boost controller yet.

true, all things considered, I went that time on the third pass in that car.  Thing is definately not like launching the truck:hick:

Well it wasnt my first time going DOWN the track, it was one of like 5 passes I had, the worst was a low 16.

The 60' was the killer I imagine. But it seemed like on every pass I had some WOT missing in 2nd or 3rd if I remember. Ive replaced the fuel pump since then as well (it was stock).

It's the generalized area. You say toledo, people think NW Ohio, you say swanton or oak harbor and they say "huh?"

It's like how I tell everyone I'm from Boston. Technically I'm from Dedham, MA but who really knows where that is?

I guess you could say "Im from a Toledo suburb" as well.
