    Since then the owner bought a few parts to mod the car. The parts were biger turbo gt3582ri, bigger than my fridge Intercooler, A secuential Blow off, a new waste gate, all the exahust system to 3", 850cc injectors (550cc stock) and a State of the Art Hydra Nemesis ECU.

    He and his mechanics team install everything but could not start the engine, it flooded gas on the crank. I consult our friend in common, Allen Nelson and told me it sound like a bad injector configuration, and as usual he was dead bulls eyes!!!!!

    I went there like my name was Nelson, and got to his software and voila, change the injectors rate in the tools menu, and the car started, then send a mail asking for a map for that specific config and they send it next day. So last night it was ready. Felt like a bullet. For the street we left it on 1.8 bar (26psi), 2.0bar (29psi) medium boost, and high boost on 2.5bar (36 psi) wich he knows will be only for a couple of rounds, and he knows he'll destroy the engine. He only rides on 110 oct gas.

    On the way out he was on 1.8 bar and we hit this red light, from behind you could see how fast the car was. So at his side we were chatting and he told me to race just to test. I told him my truck was no near a good calibration and haven't from the rebuild hit it above 5500rpm. He just insisted and being my self a race junkie I agree.

    Engage 4x4, 3rd, Tow/haul for that 6400 shifts. green light and I'm over him, I was like WTF. I let it go at 200kph and he never even come close to me!!!!!!!!

    On a next light he changed to medium boost, and he said, let's hit it again, this time he take the lead, but I was licking his tail and above 160kph he starts pulling me off slowly.

    After that I had to go to another place so I said good bye. He call me on the Cell phone and told me I had a hell of a fast truck!!!!!!, I was impressed my self too, never hit that hard, and never thought it respond like that. He told me to race on thursday night with all the guns loaded. Still have my 200HP NOS shoot under the sleve, but not engaging until Allen give me a green light. So on 2.5Bar I know I'm screw.

    Now the 2 foot power brake driving for it not to die at idle, didn't seem that important!!!!!! LOL

    Thanks a lot dude....we all start somewhere...Just waitting for some fine tunning and will be able to kick some more ass!!!

    This guy on the subbie he just spend tons of money on parts and he paid like 250 for a map, but it seems like there's more to it to let it go.

    Or is just all those ricer magazines exagerating of the capacity of those cars...I was guessing that car will be a 12 low. Haven't take times, but my guessing is high 12 on a good chilly night and on 2.5Bar boost!!!!!

    Not that much improve from 13 that all the magazines say is stock!!!!!

    On my next race dudes, I'll take out the back door as I saw in someones video on this site, that should give some tenth less.

    The back bumper can't go as my ex that have a rool pan, cause I use this truck to haul some times.

    Any sugestions on where to loose some wight you hot rodders????

    Thanks Allen, sure be waiting until 3:35am, if it does not come, I'll go to sleep LOL

    you can do a rollpan with a hidden hitch behind the license plate. Most of them are class 5 with a 2" receiver.

    Dude, I haul direct from the rear bumper, adding a hitch will be heavier?
