You and me both! The things that you are going through is why I haven't upgraded turbos yet. Another 100hp is easy, its dealing with all the **** that breaks due to that easy power is what I'm just now getting over from putting a 62 on it.

I hope you get some good weather this weekend Chris. It's tough getting these cars to 60ft in high 30 degree weather lol. Hell, any car will be tough to hook in these temps. The way you drive and how the car is setup it will have NO problems going 8s. It will happen, just keep your head up. Get er done man! Ill be checking back in here for updates

Temps are looking good so far right around 60 and sunny. That would be ideal for this time of year and the turbo should love the colder air.

I've never run at the track I'm attempting to go to so hopefully it goes well.

The same kit right now. I am pulling the parts off this weekend and they are being shipped out to the guys who bought them.

I have no idea what I am putting on the car next. Time will tell I guess. I do plan to stay with FP

I was going through some of my old photos and thought this might be your car from the 2011 DSM Shootout. Thought I'd share just in case it was. Oh and congrats btw!
