Do you know how many miles you have driven it since the mods?
I am not interested in shattered records. To do so requires that a time be broken once. I am interested in DD characteristics, longevity and overall wear and tear on internals that were never designed for this much power. I know the rods aren't. Are you planning on swapping them out?

My plan is to have the SPI P800 pump gas tune as my normal everyday setting and when I have a big race or a mile event etc...I will goto the race gas kill mode. I have no plans to replace rods unless something lets go. Thats the time I will upgrade those parts. I do budget for normal freshening of the engine for spring 2010..maybe valve springs, spark plugs and normal wear and tear items. Really whatever else Tym sees needed at that time so I am ready when the weather breaks here in Ohio.

Nice, and for a RWD car putting down the power you are putting down, I bet these sticky tires are a must! Did you have to upgrade the axles and rear dif. to handle these power levels?

My avatar is one of the Switzer cars in Russia running a similar color combo to mine
I cant wait till the cosmetics on my ride are done so I can have a nice pro photo shoot done!
No that from my rides last year run before this 2nd round of upgrades (also before I owned this car). Those first round upgrades yielded a 4.86 60-130 so its safe to say in kill mode now the car is capable of 150+ traps I would say.

Ridiculous...Congrats. Didnt a GTT do 3.5 sec or something in that range from 60-130mph? Only car I know that has done sub 4 secs. If memory serves its an Underground Racing Nera....Eithercase 3-4 sec 60-130mph is ridiculousness.
