Nah no good, I red lighted again. I ended up cutting a hole in the bonnet and sticking an air cleaner out. Can't say I like the look too much but it did make a bit of difference. Still having most of my problems with the carby. Don't want to put a Holley on because it will be unroadworthy.

Good idea, just the small issue of cash, also adds another thing that I would have to change before taking it to the strip.

Was that the one running NOS? If it was he was having major traction problems. Could not get it to hook up at all.

You really should try and find some slicks, you will be surprised how much wheel spin you get especially when the boost comes on. What sort of power output did you end up making?

lol, originally on 8psi it cranked out 120rwkw, but im running 15 now, so i guess it would be around 140kw approx

How much wheel spin do you get with 140kw approx?. I'd imagine she'd hook up reasonably well.
