Well after reading this post I checked out the redline forum. WOW those guys have killed everything. Now I know what happened to the dinosaurs.

 

Lucy's car really isn't set up for the 1/4 mile, it has lots of traction problems I think the last numbers I saw were mid 12's at some rediculous speed (like >130). Get her on the HWY though, and watch out!!!! (please correct me if I am wrong Bop)

 

I have yet to run the car at the new power levels. I can only say that it will destroy what it used to be.

My car has also been lightened, making the hp/tq numbers it now has even more meaningful, it is setup for quartermile racing, with some simple stuff such as Psi-Fi LCA bushingsm stiffer springs and a custom rear suspension
lockout device which prevents rear end squat and keeps all the power on the front wheels.

Here is a old run from several years back when the car was at a mere 480hp, the DA was a terrible 7500ft on this day, at this point in SRT history so to speak, this car was the third highest hp car in the Country and wound up with the 3rd highest trap in the Country behind Dynoworks Dave and Steve Anderson, a remarkable feat considering we used the small 50 trim.... Which was short lived as many since then have ran faster, but again, if I could race the old 50 trim setup with the new GT35R setup at full boost, I would rout what it used to be. The GT35R on full boost is very violent and very very powerful, it doesn't run out of steam like the 50trim did, it pulls strong and hard all the way up to redline.





Figure this, if the car went 11.85 at a DA of 7500ft and managed some buck twenty five traps, what would it do at say sea level with now having over 150 more wheel hp which doesn't drop off at redline, and a car that is also lighter
then what it was. This car would easily lower its ET and pick up some very strong trap speed at a lower elevation, as again, it is a tremendous difference from what it once was, to what it is now. The GT35R hits and hits hard, transforming the car
into a runaway freight train. 35psi on this race engine is a huge step up from its old 50 trim stock engine setup.

I recently got into a race with my very own car which was being driven by somebody else, as I was driving my 2006 303hp Monte SS, and it was simply mind boggling at how fast the Red car just pulled away from me.

 

thanks

 

I know about the GT35R, it's what's in my car to, lol!!! Just hit 480@25lbs, lots of tuning left to do. I was POed you didn't come to the SRT Nats, I was hoping you could give me some pointers. Although without you there, my car was the fastest SRT!!!!

 

And, if you don't mind me asking, what are you redlining at now??? I know you have an EMS, so 6200 is out of the question, lol. I have mine set @ 7200 BTW.

 

11.98 @125 mph just doesnt sound right, if those cars were AWD u would be runnin low 10's

 

FWD cars always trap high for the time.

 

Then you know daddy-o how violent the boost hits from that dual BB turbo which just loves C16 fuel.
I don't know if you have felt 35psi yet from it, doesn't sound like you have, but when you do you will simply be amazed on how much the 35R wakes up in the mid 35 psi range. Heck this turbo impresses me at 17 psi were we made 417hp..

at 35 psi it is simply incredible and hard to describe and simply must be experienced, as I am sure you will very soon my friend...

Big Boost from the 35R and a engine that can support it is a force to be recogned with....

I want to hear back from you either here or on SRT forums when you crank her up, 25 psi is very nice, 35 psi is devastating!

 

FWD hurts, this car made its ET and Trap on the big end of the track. I for one thing was running to small of a slick some 24.5's 15 inch tires....

This car now easily outraps 125mph....
