I saw this exact same car driving around today. To bad you live in Cali. I know there is a yellow one out here too. Is there any room left in your garage?

He ran a 10.4@144 with a granny launch, and the car is insanely fast.
This below info is also whats circulating about this particular GT and the 10.4 @ 144 run :

2005 Ford GT
Full exhaust, drop-in K&N, 2.6 pulley (roughly 21psi), SCT tune and a dry 30 shot used in 2nd gear only. Car made 724rwhp, 713rwtq on the bottle; and made 670rwhp off the bottle on pump. Runs were done on 315/18 nitto drag radials; bogs the launch pretty hard

Is it getting warm enough for a meet Shank? I'd love to see that car. Well actually any of your cars are worth a drive.

Superchargers have a belt driven pulley that dictates how much max boost psi the S/C will put out at a given rpm. Going to a smaller pulley makes the S/C spin faster which equals more psi and power.

Going with a smaller supercharger (or upper in this case) pulley will give more boost but also gives more likely hood of belt slip (thus dropping boost and power). You can also do a larger crank pulley to get more boost (and usually less belt slip). Generally (due to ratios), at the same boost levels, The car with the larger crank pulley will produce more tq. And the car with the smaller upper will produce more hp (if that makes any sense lol)
