heard bout a track rental at atco on teh 11th of sept. I actually had a court date for a loud exhaust citation with the truck but I think thats dismissed....of course I'm gonna make sure I trailer it that way I can drop the car off when I blow it up etc.

so how much stupider can we make it? you think it'll take 18 or 20 psi?? more than once at least?

Anyway, I have to say a public thank you to Alan (Asmokegar) for his generosity beyond the call of duty in selling me his C5R at the cost of what he paid for it which was below its value. Alan has supported me throughout this project and would not be what it is without him. He has even deferred lift time to my project over his own. I cannot say enough about how much of friend he and others on this forum have been to me even though I have never met them in person....Just shows that there are some great people in the Corvette community unlike what the general public believes about Corvette owners...Thanks everyone
Silas , I know you have waited a long time , but now you have your 9-second ride . Good luck with it , very nice numbers for the first time out .

i mean come on....if your car makes big # your going let everyone know.
i heard that it made less then NA 427 and they ditcvhed those big turbos and hung some "standard" ones.

i have driven navy08 sts m6 w/standard turbos and i wouldnt want it to spool any latter then that. i could not imagine spooling at 5000 rpms

Nick, that Z06 is at full boost at 3,500 with no timing and rich A/R and it carries all the way.
People here would consider the car fast, makes good power, well over what you stated.
When I get a chance to head back to the shop, we will post the final results.
Benerex, I have lot of other obligations and have been out of town as much I enjoy working all day Sunday, all night tonight into late tomorrow night with zero sleep.
Take it to one my threads or pm's. If that does not happen, it will be rectified.
