    Amazing times, i guess i didnt see it, do you also have stock heads on the motor too? im playing hell with mine, i cant seem to get it to run much faster than where i am, not sure if its a tune issue or something im overlooking lol. i have a similar setup in a 94 firebird lq4 stock heads, small cam ls1 intake s480 turbo, th400 trans with 3600 converter, and for the life of me i cant seem to get this this much faster than high 10's the last 2 trips to the track mph is only 130-131.. boost is only 11-12 lbs though, i just see yours and feel like i should be faster lol car weighs 3555 with me in it too..

    Heres some pics of the new billet wheel from Bullseye. Def made more power with less boost


    Ran wed night trapped 141, had traction issues and just wasnt my night kept screwing up the launch.

    Then ran Sat to work on my 60s and would of ran consistent 9s every pass but didnt want to get kicked out for no license. So hammered the brakes every pass ran 10.2 10.1 10.3 all at under 110 mph lol
    Last pass went all out but spun the launch 1.67 60' still ran 115mph in the 8th and ran a 9.9@144!!!!!!!

    What timing you running afrs? ?? You getting any kr? Also what plugs? You can be in the 8s with that set up I would think your about 150-200 lighter than me. What converter do you have?

    thanks for sharing your info, if i had my rad hose I would have the whole setup fired up, but stuck waiting right now.

    nice upgrade on the billet wheel, is that the batmowheel? do you also have the race cover? Looks like you had a healthy pickup if the only change between last time and this was the wheel upgrade, might have to check that out

    Its not the Batmo that was a little more than i wanted to spend but I have the Batmowheel race cover. They actually sent me the wrong cover but to my benefit haha
    Heres a couple videos of the track from saturday with some Sunoco 104 Unleaded gas
    Went up to get licensed but couldn't didn't know I need the cage cert before also needed solid valve stems in the front lol
    So turned the boost down to 14 but ran 9.9@142 first pass.

    looking great! i'm so jealous, your car is really really nice. I might have to look into an upgraded cover and wheel, great #s

    sorry to be a nag, but could you post up your tune, i'm really trying to learn and this is so overwhelming! haha i'm sure a few things will get the ball rolling, but this is a lot to take in at first

    You dont need the wheel right away trust me lol It made serious power with the cast wheel but me blowing the turbo got me to go for it. Now with the race cover i hear that its a great upgrade and worth the price. Very simple to do also

    You talking about dynamic airflow? Checked some logs, mine maxes at 67.725lb/min (2000camaro). Maybe its a hard coded limit in the PCM.
