right now the boost is around 22psi on the gas I maybe see a 1psi creep. I was using a 75shot and I think it was like teasing the car LOL she loves the nitrous. I have no idea how many miles are on this aristo motor but she seems to be in pretty good shape. The more I throw at her the better she runs.

I really love how simple it is, and how easy it is to drive. As soon as I can get rid of these spongy brakes I will for sure put the car hard on the converter or just quit being a Vagina and leave on the transbrake.

The SC400 rearend I have seems to be holding up fine. I didnt have the money for a Supra rearend so I went to the local yard and got me a $150 rearend and locked her in place with the good ole MIG welder. tight corners suck but other than that its fine

could work on the 50ft, would lower you possibly into high 9's if you lower it to 1.3-1.4
