Default My old setup

Hey guys lots of people have asked about my old setup and honestly a lot of people are in disbelief and want to try to talk racing from the sidelines. My car is an ls2 car with stock intake manifold stock heads (minus valve springs) stock bottom end car. It has a fore innovations fuel setup running e85. The car has an alky setup on it. And it has an ecs blower 1500sl. Heads have never been pulled from the car. Manual with a built z06 rear end. The cam is from rpm in garner nc and it's their blower cam. The car made 821 and 670 Torque I couldn't be happier with all the fun I had with this setup. This season only thing not changing is the 1500sl lol

I forgot to mention rpm in garner nc is the only place that has worked on my car other than me.

It ran a best of 9.7 at 145. I'm really the weak link imo. I ran it shortly after we got it together I have since improved driving but haven't been back.

So what's the new setup? I would have a hard time changing such a stout build.

love the flat black!

what tires and 60ft time did you have at the track when you ran 9.7? that's impressive imo.

any idea what peak timing the tune has and what AFR it's at?

It's actually dipped not wrapped. I was driving cross country and didn't want to mess up the nice black paint so I dipped the car. It looked great (to me) and got lots of positive attention. It's not for every body that's for sure. But I really enjoy the product.
