Haha, that's a good one Trent, the fix for the post that is. haha
It is going to be a long day tomorrow waiting for Monday. You should have it in the bag, it's going to be a hand full with the power it made today
I wish I had more time for my own car.................my new times will have to come later I guess.

You know, I was thinking about this car and this record the other day. I think it was sort of overshadowed by the rapid swapover the the larger HTA 86mm turbo and the extra couple hundred HP it brought.
I'd like to just congratulate Tom and David again on what a freaky, straight to the limit type achievement this really was. I think it will be a long time before anyone bests this stock appearing turbo record, nice work guys!

I just saw this post. Thanks Robert. You're probably right, but I was anxious to show that the car was truly built for anything we could throw at it. The RED is STILL my favorite turbo. Tremendous torque down low and power to pull 2880 lbs to 145+ mph. Now, as for YOU, JVELA,
you guys can't do it and you KNOW it. Just give up now and go on to something else. I can't imagine ANYONE under estimating you guys. If they do, they're fools. Now, get to the track and lower that time, I'm OK with that. Some how, I think you and your team will get the job done.

Give it hell boys!

I have to say that it impresses me both sides.... The BR team and the PR crew!
Congrats to the BR team on achieving those incredible numbers.
On a side note: I am still loving my green and my achievement on 400+ WHP on 93 OCT (Self built and tuned). It seems very lame for those that are hitting 500+ WHP but I have some empathy in achieving a world record with a personal one. I know it feels really good!
Again..... Congrats on this achievement!

Thanks Joed, but also, congratulations to you on your Green. If it wasn't for many of the racers in PR, Tony and I wouldn't have been pushed to reach our goals. I know there's a lot of self satisfaction in building and tuning your own car, so making 400 whp is very commendable. Very nice numbers and results.

I fixed a couple of little items of the tune that is shown on my sig the day the car was tuned. Just need to download the software to print the rest of the pulls.
Always impressed me that you guys stuck with the stock appearance turbo for that car with the variety of kits available in the market. And, still running fast and quick!
You guys were the ones that pushed me to extract the max of the green and not going with a tubular 3Xr kit half way thru. By doing so, I learned many noobie mistakes I was doing on my car.
Keep up the good work!
