I raced one last friday night and o god was it fasttt I didn't think a stock mustang was that freakin fast, beat him but I worked for it. I think the only reason i got him was because he missed a gear.
hmm...his 750 hp twin turbo LS1 seemed to have trouble with 450 4000lb GT500[&:]

This guy has to be a joke. I know that a tt trans am is very rare. $10,000+ turbo kit alone. I'm I right?

His car is VERY RARE, its so damn rare that it only exists in one place--his wet dreams.

I definately call BS on this. I have a friend in my local Fbody club who has an Incon TT in his TA. The predator tune supplied to him from some company out of LA would barely let the car run much less get it tuned optimally. Hell handhelds would have a problem with a needed tune to handle most large cams. The crane cams handheld would never be able to tune in the 3 bar needed to run even 2lb of boost. He (friend) finally got his car dynotuned at a local shop using HP tuners 3bar setup and it required days to get it all right. BSx1000 What TT kit do you have on the car?

Well, I guess since you didn't show up with the photo's you are indeed full of **** (was there ever any doubt?). Case closed.

Where ya from Blackwidow? Nearabout Sikeston I guess? That would at least put us in the same area code...

Just an interesting point, I have 123 pictures (Holy crap, I didn't realize that until just now) of my nearly stock, slow GT. Am I that much prouder of my car than you are of yours? [&:]

Very interested in pictures of car/engine with some sort of proof. Be it McDonald's cup or a piece of paper saying Mustangforums...sumthin.
Lol, I was gonna offer to meet the guy in Springfield (about a 3hr drive for me). I think it would be worth 3 hours to get my *** handed to me by a TT TA... but I have a feeling I would be left waiting all by my lonesome..

And who in their right mind would tune a car with a handheld tuner on 8psi with a cam in it? That right there is the biggest indication of BS ive seen.... Seriously, Id like to know how you got a nice accurate A/f ratio to tune that car "safely".... let alone actualy KNOW what the car is putting down.

I drove my car 35+ miles with a .609 lift cam in it on a stock tune....it would only hold a steady idle if I held one foot on the gas and one on the brake....it was a real PITA....no one would do it, especially not with a turbo car, it's just crazy.

Every one has to start some where. And no there's alot of people running alluminum rods on mild tuned turbo motors. With the amount of booste the hand held doesn't hurt anything.
Just to add... rods are not rated for a specific amount of boost they are rated at a specific horsepower. For example.. my eagle h-beams are rated for 900hp@9,000rpm.
