Well the car is running, very strongly too 8) However I have three things left to take care of that are annoying.

-My tap in the vacuum lines for a boost gauge is no longer sealing right and the focker howls like a banshee between -10 and 3psi

-Both turbos were smoking very heavily (normal I'm told for new turbos) but now the back one seems to persist...possible oil leak :shock:

-I managed to be ULTRA SLICK and somehow disrupt the harness on my oil pressure sending unit so I gotta dig under the car and check to see if I managed to unplug it with the damn rear heat shield.

All of these are minor, and the car is running STRONG!!!!!

there's been confirmed ETs of 11.9 on 9Bs with no N2O. A guy named Devin once said he ran an 11.7, but I think that was with 9Bs and a 100 shot.

It takes literally $1000s in equipment and dyno tuning to get 9Bs into the 11s, but it can be done.

13Gs are easier to get into low times because of the higher end pull that they have. What people have to make up for is the lack of power between 5000 and redline. I wouldn't ever think of takin 9Bs to 11s because I'm a shoddy tuner. Believe me, once I'm at 15psi again, it'll be all over biggrin.gif. I also intend on keeping the 13Gs for a long time, like, until I get TD05s or GT 368s or DR800s.
