Thanks to everyone, it's tough for me to get in and post have been working a lot.
thanks Eric and the whole AMS crew for always helping me out, next time im in town we will hit up Arbies again to celebrate 
I hear ya on the AC, honestly if it were up to me I would have kept the AC on but it was taken off when I had a larger turbo on it and couldn't make the A/C fit. This AMS turbo kit allows you to run the A/C if needed, I just decided to keep it off during the winter, haven't decided if I'm going to put it back on again.
I agree Curt is an awesome driver... I do the best I can with what I run, the best 60 foot I have done is 1.504 on the drag radial... slicks would definitely get consistent low 1.4's. I literally drive in at the track, do not change any settings, take the tools out and run the car. I haven't really dialed in the car yet, so you will see times drop even more.
In car vids are kinda large... here's one, ran outta fuel up top. 9.842 run

You really are my Hero!
what amazes me isnt just how fast that car is but that you took a 9.80 MANUAL transmission car and drove it to THREE CONSECUTIVE 9.8 passes.
Fast car aside, you sir can drive the **** out of that thing.

ok i love the inside video car sounds sick!! i am also interested what you are shifting at, and what the rpm's fall to after the shifts?
from the video looks like you are shifting around 9,200 and they rpm's fall to around 7,000. its amazing since you are reving so high you get 150mph out of 4th gear!!
