Mike Reichen / Devo Tuning @ The Maxton Mile, 4.6.08

So far so good. 210 mph off the trailer at low boost (lower 30's). I believe this sets a new record for his class for the ETCA, as well as puts him into ETCA's 200 mph club.:thumbsup:

He's still on the Shearer custom turbo header, but he's running a Borg Warner 74mm.

I'll post up his progress later in the day.

There was only time for 1 more pass, and he didn't have a chance to swap the spark plugs. They ended up being fouled from cruising in the pits, and waiting in line. He smoked all 4 at the starting line, and the crowd loved it, he started misfiring in 3rd. The second fastest car there was a Lingerfelter twin turbo vette in the mid 190 mph range. 210 mph was enough for Mike to win the The Hot Rod Magazine Top Speed Challenge.
There will be a feature article in the August issue.
