Bumper cover turned out real nice. Must be doing it's job as well pushing air around the car. Did it feel like the nose wanted to lift at all?

Congrats on the numbers!

Nicely executed.

Are you running a front engine plate only with motor mounts or is there an engine plate on the rear of the block, too?

I guess the twins help on sucking up the frontal area. Interesting to have the turbos mounted at that angle.
What about the stock naca duct and the quarter panel brake ducts. I would imagine at the speed you are going, they are not the best aero to have?

And a diffuser too. Whats the story on that? Have not seen a top speed car run one.

Best fitment spot we found to get the twins in at was right there.

Thise ducts definetly do not help. Want to seal those up me pull the mirrors and cap those holes aswell.

Diffuser is part of the sealed underbody and helps with keeping the car stable and increasing air speed exiting the rear.

Car looks amazing! Loving the rear diffuser.

Any reason for only 10:1 comp. ratio with the meth? Is that not hurting spool times with the big turbos? Any plans on running rolling anti lag to help light them off?

didnt need to get to crazy with compression because we plan to run a good 50 or so + lbs through it. have to get the converter sorted first before we can do any of that. anytime you run any kind of antilag (pulls timing and dumps more fuel in) you loose torque on the motor. which in the case of a converter car is no good. on a clutch car it doesnt matter.

got a M&M external trans pressure dump that i threw on the 400 that should help alot lowering the charge pressure and basically loosening the converter up when its open. will set that up with the trans brake, and i just added a dry fogger nozzle from N20 on it. with the converter loosened up from the dump we can run the antilag on it and hit it with a small shot to spool everything up and getting the party rolling on the line

Awww see the problem! Sorry should have thought of that.

Sounds daft but could quick spool valves help? Its another thing to fail I guess and would require hotside redo. But might help....
