refering back to the power steering issue, is there a way that u can run a breather and a small motorcycle resovior so that the steering isnt as hard to turn?? im not sure about evos but i know that hondas have been using this method and and it works... and who knows, maybe it can b another product for you guys to sell if it works....

I personally don't mind it too much, not having power steering, but my car is really light (as is ricer). I would imagine that on a full weight car, it would be a bit more work!

I'm curious with that amount of power you guys made last year on the dyno, did you run a lower amount of boost at the track?
Don't take this the wrong way but with a light weight car like that with slicks, and about 80-100whp more then david you guys only managed a best of 157. I know many factors come into play but it would seem like with that amount of power on the MD and 160 should have been broken pretty easily at the track.
Good luck this year, I hope to see you guys out at the shootout. Go get that 8 sec slip.

Makes sense, I wasn't sure if you guys did or not because it seemed like the 6765 went on really late in the season.
Thats true david, it was a rough comparison. But as emery explained it was pretty clear cut why.
OT:
Is that a tilton triple?
You guys should make some posters of your car, I'd love one for my garage or shop.
