Thanks for the tips Jake. We did a few of them and it has us in the right direction.
Hope Paul has the logs up soon. You can tell by looking at the boost what she will be able to do once we have the car fully dialed in. Only getting 2-3 passes a week its making it a slow process, but we keep moving forward and the car is holding together quite well.

The first run we did was a shakedown. The tires always heat up 3 psi than we lower them down. 2nd pass was more to make sure our gears where going in right and get the trans warmed up. 3rd pass which i didn't get was a more go for it pass.
We took the launch down to 8700rpms from 9000rpms which really seemed to help. We added the stock struts with Eibach coils plus a Perren sway bar in the rear. Seemed to really help if you watch the video

Paul, I was looking through your pictures and noticed you still have a sunroof. Is it the factory one or some kind of insert such as CF or lexan?
Congrats on your runs, excited to see it get closer and closer to the 8's.

Are you setting tire pressure with you in the car? There is a pressure change on the drive side if you not in the car, more so in the front then the rear.
Do you drive thru the water before you do your burn out, or are you sitting in the water box? Have you tried a not burning out?
