we did not run a 2.3 in our car. it has a built 2.0 for the strip to rev higher and built 2.3 for road racing.
Al, Congrats is in order from all the guys here at AMS. You are doing things with out kit that we didnt think was possible. Congrats on the time and a bigger congrats on holding the record.
looks like we have our work cut out for us when we get back from one lap.
Friendly competition breeds success.

I wanted to say special thanks to
DAN from Pruven Performance for helping me out yesterday with some much needed driving instructions which obviously yielded huge results and also for his expert assistance and help in doing the final tune adjustment which yielded the record setting pass.
Also - thanks to Kenny Shelinsky from Pruven for working long hours on my NHRA spec firewall to have it ready for the race and also for his help in making the new GT40R manifold for my car which will be comming out in a few weeks
Without a lot of help from a whole lot of people it would never have been possible for one guy like myself operating out of my apartment garage to put together a car like this.
Special thanks to my sponsors:
Exedy triple plate clutch
Buschur Racing 3 " exhuast, mini battery kit and alcohol kit
Ferrea Valves
Pauter Rods
Pruven Pistons
Driveshaft Shop half shafts
Pruven Performance custom fabrication and design
Ivey Tune AEM calibration and consultation on race design
AMS Turbo kit and fmic
BTW - we were curious so I put it on the dyno to see what it was making with the same exact tune and boost settings to see how much power it was making
(It was nice to be able to run the 9 second pass - drive it off the track - on to the dyno and drive around on the street all day today with not even one problem - it seems I have a fast and reliable set up)

Killer time!! Did you only make one pass that day?
