    *Update* New personal best 8.344 on street tires

    Ended my season on a high note a couple weeks ago. Npb 8.08 @ 85 with a 1.85 60ft. Combo is still the same. 22 psi. Leaving with about 3.5 psi. Still on the 255 bfg g force street tire at 24 psi. Short dry burn out. Really wanting to see 7s with these tires next year!

    *Update* New personal best 8.344 on street tires

Big difference at the line now holding boost. Beat last years record on the first pass! Was going faster second pass but lifted about 100ft...

    *Update* New personal best 8.344 on street tires

    Usually just 1-2 psi. Any more and it starts to push through the rear brakes. Thinking about trying s10 wheel cylinders.

    *Update* New personal best 8.344 on street tires

    Went out to Greer again last night and ran a new best of 8.344! No changes to the car. 2100 rpm launch. 2.013 60ft. 65* outside. Funny thing is this pass was the worst mph of the night at 83.3, best was on my slowest past 86.7. New goal, 1.99 or better 60 on these street tires.

    Pulling a thread from the grave here but if the op is still on the site did a new cap fix your issue? My car is doing the exact same thing. Going to try unplugging the cam sensor and see what happens.

    Has anyone explored variable geometry turbos for our cars?

    Im curious to know about this one as well. I do know that Cummins and Ford are using vgt turbos on their new diesels. Not sure about the duramax, but wouldn't surprise me if they were.

    PTE 6262 Journal Bearing

    Not speaking from experience here but I've somewhere read on here that you don't need the spacer if running stock headers. But the angle boss is a must! Edit: just noticed you mentioned 3" up, you certainly will be close.

    Compound turbocharging?

    This method of turbocharging is very popular with the cummins diesel guys. Its not uncommon to see those engine sporting there stock turbo with a massive charger hanging right below. Of course these are diesels were talking about here which can safely handle much higher boost levels :rolleyes...
