Joe,

You and S-351 have a couple things in common.
He hates having passengers for fear that they might touch the insides of the windows or other delicate areas. His GT2 is MINT and soon to be VERY FAST.
Good stuff

Congrats Joe!! Great feat! Is it true that you guys only went to 29PSI on the 1037awhp run thou?? If so, why not take it higher? To say 33-34PSI? With head studs the way you have shouldn't she be reliable to 35psi? Was it that you guys were running out of injector at that boost/power level?

PS; Don't forget guys, this is the type of hardware Joe's going against in Oct.

...joe, we need 33-34PSI on that beast FTW! I'd love to see a 911 win the mile...

New setup on the way

.We should have it in about 2 weeks.
