Thanks for the recognition on my GN.
A few things have changed since that's not in the sig.
New custom catback, utilizing twin 16" Bullet mufflers. I'll have to take some pictures.
MAF Pro setup with LC1 wideband and XD-16 gauge. Been taking me a bit to get the car tuned with it, but well worth it.
External wastegate downpipe.
Twin fans out of 1999 Interpid.
Custom switch panel from TR Custom Parts 84-87 Turbo Regals, 94-6 Impala SS, 93-up F Body Cars, Olds G-Body Cars, Late Model Corvettes, S-10 Blazers
Oh, and I just ordered a Hydroboost brake setup that I plan on doing a small write up on.
Here are some more pics.
Thanks,
Doug D

Just got a sweet, polished turbo from Frank (rata02). Looks great under the hood!

WOW, realy nice car!
Hello Doug,
It was great seeing your car run at Moroso last night man. It is impressive what you can do with the tuning on these cars. I am especially impressed with the functionality of the power logger and how you are able to fine tune all those different parameters. Thanks for taking the time to explian how it all works.
For a basically stock car with bolt-ons, your car is very impressive. I still cannot believe how busy the track was and you were still able to get 8 runs in. Well this may just be the last of the "cool" weather for this year so I think you made a good decision to run last night.
Good luck with it and I hope to see you at the track again.
Regards,
Shev.

Thanks Shev, it was good meeting you also.
Not sure if you saw, but after we spoke, I clicked off the best pass of the night, and for the car for that matter. 12.17@108.9 with a 1.69 short. Not sure why the MPH is down, but the ET is there.
New drag radials and relocation brackets go on tonight.
Let me know if you have anymore questions on my setup.

Congrats on the new best pass Doug! You're slowly creeping up on the 11's with the stock turbo and bolt-ons, very impressive.
Shooting for 11's on pump, drag radials, full weight, stock turbo and stock necked intercooler. I know it's been done before, but I'm learning a ton along the way.
Thanks,
Doug D
Doug,
You are so close man. I think with a more aggressive launch and maybe some more timing you should be able to bust off that 11'sec timeslip.
What does the relocation brackets do?
Have you noticed if those drag radials hook any better the more like a slick the get? I remembered with my BF drag radials when they got close to like a slick they were still hooking very well.
Are you gonna head out to the track tonight for some more test and tune?
Congrats on the new pb.

Shev,
I thought it would of been an issue, that the MT DR's are about bald, but I was still able to get a 1.69 out of them. Doesn't matter now since I just had fresh ones installed.
Relocation brackets move the instant center of the rear, which should create an anti squat effect upon launch.
I wish I can go tonight, but my new lower control arms aren't in yet. There is a track rental in Brandenton I'll be at, and luckly it's at night, I'll be shooting for 11's there

Here is all the info on the track rental. There has been some spot swapping since it was moved from March, you may be able to find one.
