Nice, what are you shooting for as far as track times go?

[[ion] C2]

13.5 or better..

[Trickyslick]

looks nice and good job. One of the nices Aleros on here

[leoalero]

Really nice,so what i read is you cannot push it to the limit because of the couplers?!?I didnt know the pressure was that high in the tubing!Nice and clean setup!

[[ion] C2]

Well it's at what pressure I want it to be at for now, it's just unreliable. The couplers could burst or blow off. Most of them are cheapo ones held on by worm gear clamps, which aren't able to hold the pressure that well. It's not that big of a deal. Once I get some quality ones on and t-bolt clamps it'll be good to go. This is my "plateau" time for my performance mods. I sit on this for a while. Next up is finishing the appearance/handling (springs, struts, tint, etc.), and then supporting mods for more boost (ARP head studs, porting, Cometic head gasket, 2.3L HO manifold) and then put on a Garrett GT30R turbo at the same boost level I'm at now, and see what happens.

C2;467700']13.5 or better..

it is a nice goal but how about you hit 13s first........and if you run slow, just come on here and post, don't make excuses like you did the last couple times........

[Vic28]

nice pictures, gonna have to ask ya few questions later on thru PMs. Lets see what you run, hope for the best tomorrow, I hope you got some BFG Drag Radials.

Won't be any reasons to run slow without a non-intercooled hEATON... I enjoy sub 90 degree IATs all the time, contrary to the massive knock and 160 degree IATs with the blower.

If I can do 30-100 in 10 seconds, I think I can probably run a 13.

Open That Beast Up! Enough Granny Driving I Wanna Hear That Bitch Roar! ;)

[DOHC_tuner]

so now you hate the EATON...I told you turbo was the way to go....should have installed ARP and your choice of head gasket before.

Now you gotta take her apart again. Trust me thats a pain in the ass.

Well I know you can do it, I just hope you get your tune right.

[Spilner521]

T-bolt clamps....you have a PM..

[kwhauck]

todays the day, just run it and don't make any excuses......

[jrim]

where those times at? :p

[NickAlero2000]

he ran 14.3 @101.4.
posted on fb. Also says he was only running between 6-9 psi all night due to mbc problems. im sure he'll post about it eventually

[[ion] C2]

todays the day, just run it and don't make any excuses......
Yeah, I'm just going to say "Yes, this is the absolute best that my setup can run" and ignore the fact that it was only on 8 psi compared to the 13.5 I had it tuned at, and that I haven't figured out my launch yet. (2.3 60')
