Fun at the strip 850 1994

that is excellent that you were able to drop a full second from stock form with only one modification. i ran my car at 19psi for a time, but wasn't able to get to a strip before i blew the transmission. we are having test and tune days comeing up this next Wednesday and plan to run my firnd in his Nissan 300zx. i just can't get a whole lot more power out of it, so i am building a Nissan Silvia which will run low 12's or high 11's depending how high i turn up the turbo. it shoudl be complete by December 21st. a birthday present to myself, hehe. excellent work on that gain, mad props.

and def change the fluid to full synthetic tranny fluid. i run 12psi on my car on the road and 15-19 on the strip, depending on my mood and whether i need to to beat my competition. of course i lose more than i win. try racing a 9 sec mustang.
