i cant put zc at 5psi and fast in the same sentence...a zc at 10psi isnt even fast...hmmm

turbo is much better than juice though. ive ran both and spreaying nitrous is fun, but you have to refill the ---- and worry about bottle pressure and such.. too much hassle.

I ran a 12.9 at 11psi on a ZC, and my buddy jay ran 12.7 on a turbo zc at 13psi..

How is 10psi not fast? Whats your latest 1/4 mile time? oh thats right you just melt pistons.

Dont talk ----, if you dont know ----

thanks for the coments.

the flat black paint is actualy tremclad and the lower bumpers are the shinnier tremclad, all hand sprayed. it came out pretty even.

the interior is stripped same with the sound tar layer so it's really light, two people can pick the back up of the ground. so i'd say the power to weight ration is pretty large. one project this summer is to put plexiglass on the back hatch. that';s good for another 30 40 lbs..


we are getting the good old boys at rpr to weld a nice exhaust and charge pipes.


soon we will tune it with turbo edit, and raise it to 10psi, don't think we;ll get traction

hey can you pm me or something about that tremclad stuff and details on the prep work you did, and maybe where to get the paint? I'd like to know but I don't wanna jack this guys thread.
