I am really looking forward to this weekend. Still 2 mos away and I am already getting antsy about the strip. I expect my 00 to run considerably faster than 12.4s and think my 06 will be in the 13s. Mike you can try my redline box if you want to. No promises on your 99 vp44 though. Did you receive your turbo? Tim

At least you're planning ahead RR

I'm not sure if I'll make it to this event considering there's an event in PA the following weekend that is 3 hours closer to me. I'll let ya'll know sooner or later if I'll be showing.

Mike:

I think "Tiger Rag" and Tim are right,.......I would put that VP-44 very HIGH on my "priority list!"

Tim:

We all hope to see your 2000 break into the 11's!

Tim, I got the turbo on this past Monday, I think it made a slight difference. Thanks as always on the great customer service.

I haven't talked myself into putting on a box yet. Unless someone knows where I can get a good deal on a vp44, just in case?

Mike may have an update on this front in the near future. I'll let him give details when he has them nailed down.

And yes, we need to see some black smoke going down the strip breaking into the 11's.

Sorry about this post, I was just trying to stir something up. Plus, I just wanted to keep the post close to the top.

Man, I wish April would get here, I psyched for this get together! I'm probably headed to The Rock the weekend before also.

You need to get a bigger spoon. Like the one I'm using.

Well, I went and done it. I took out my injectors, turbo and Smarty. I decided this HP/TQ game is too much for me. I'm going back stock. I figure my truck will live longer if I don't mess with it. I think I'm going to put the transmission back to stock too.
