It's funny how this snowballs. Mark I wanted to build an 11 second street car. You need nothing fancy for that, 3 trannys and a rear later and now adding a bunch of suspension parts. Where does it stop?? LOL

Jeff, sorry to hear about your health. Get that fixed asap and you'll be fine. I can relate to getting bummed over cancer. If prostate it's curable. (Mines treatable) .
I assume you currently run a manual boost controller. For now leave it as your limit control. You can add a 90° shut-off valve (barrel valve) and manually pull in your boost fast as you can keep hooked. It's faster than turning a knob and will keep from overshooting boost limit. |

Think soft compound dirt track DOT tires for street strip. American Racer (used to be McCreary). Low cost and sticky.

As for the car, I have slicks on it now and by spring I will have a decent set of rear shocks. Hopefully the single digit pass will be there, I am sure it will. Car is a real street car, full interior, customer console with cupholders, phone charger, bluetooth, nice radio. I have to be happy the way it is,, any faster and it becomes a real danger I guess. It has no roll bar, just 3 point belts. It's a sleeper hub caps and all! It has a manual boost controller, but if all goes well this year I will add an electronic one. I have a date for a track day, but have to see how things are before I really commit. Last edited by JSPONT; 01-19-2019 at 03:24 PM. Reason: adding |
