Haven't logged in for a while, changed a few things recently and have new 1/4mile numbers and a dyno sheet

Upped my turbo setup investment to $600 and installed a Walbro fuel pump and finally an intercooler and new BOV:






Latest 1/4mile time, 14.5@97mph against a WRX:

Dynosheet/video, first pull was at 9psi, second at 13psi on E85:

Pretty stoked with the results, still decided whether to find some used drag tires and see if I can break into the 13s....

Motor is holding up well, I've pounded on it for about 20k miles and the compression is still solid across the board

Nice job, I never could understand why people drag race wrx's and EVOs, I always cringe when the clutch gets dumped at 6k. I bet you could have taken him with a bit more traction.

Almost forgot, something to make me fit in a little better here (if that's possible)--my car is also part Honda now





Little 1/2 radiator action. Needs a bigger fan and controller with a lower setpoint, but is working well so far...
