The funny part is that the fuel pump crapped out on the way to the dyno, meaning it was making more power before. The car really is stupid fast and feared by a lot of people on the streets. I've beaten supercharged mustangs w/150 shot and every bolt on, Evo's running 30psi and 35r's, all dynoed over 500whp and even a modded 600r bike.
Good fun though
I seriously can't imagine how you have any traction at all.... here I am in CA trying to get 225s all the way around on the car as I have no traction in the first 2 gears and I am STOCK!

Jean I run 225/50/15 MT ET street tires with 12psi in them and they still spin even at 90mph, the trick is not to give it full throttle to quick.
I had no idea MT made Street tires! :) What is your wheel size/width and offset? No problems with tires rubbing the inner front strut tube or anything else?

There K1's 7"1/2 don't remember the offset, the front tires do not rub at all, they are kumho victor track tires.
I'm going to try 255/55/15 in the back, I think they will fit.
When you get time can you post some videos and also some recent pictures of the car? I'm interested to see some engine bay shots!
Imo, his engine bay is rough, but when your making that much power who cares!
Good'n'tight, have you still got that same tailshaft that's welded in two places?

Aside from showing yourself to be offensive, lacking experience and ignorant in the ways of business, you're also illiterate and imprudent. Beyond that, your sense of liability is severely impaired.

Same drive shaft holding up so far.
I got new drag radials and was able to stuff 235/60/15 in there, they only rub a little on the outside when the car squats when I floor it.
No vids but these are my 2 kill stories from this weekend.
Friday put on bigger drag radials MT 235/60/15 so went out for some traction testing
First race was a C6Z06 with headers, exhaust, CAI, tune. His buddies were egging him on to race me from a 60 so he finally accepted.
He beeped it off and we went at the same time, he jumped about 1/2 a car ahead but once my turbo spooled I reeled him in a passed him by 1 1/2 cars by 120ish. I noticed he was still on it so I stayed in it to see what the Z had up top.
He started to creep up and was by my door at around 170, by then I was at the end of fifth just under redline and let off. Ends up the Z runs 10.9 at 130 in the 1/4.
Second race Porsche 997tt with k&n and exhaust (so i was told) he wanted a 40 to 140.
First run we took off and I trained him by 6 plus cars, we got to the turn around and he wanted to go again, I said lets go.
This time the tires let loose and I got bit squirrely but stayed in it, the porsche was about 1/2 car ahead, once it hooked I pulled on him instantly and passed him by 120 and applied many train lengths on him.
Got back to the spot and he said he forgot to push the sport button on the first run, not that it made a difference anyway
I was very impressed by the Z06, couldn't even imagine how fast that car could be with a 200 shot
