I drove this wild machine this weekend and all I can say is WOW. at 15 PSI it acts like a 2.5 at 25PSI.
tried to keep the RPM to 6k but it just wanted to keep on going like the energizer bunny
Great design and well worth the time and effort put into it.

I didn't dare ask you to help me move over the weekend Sid as I knew how close the car was to running again. Let me know if you head to the track this Wednesday as the weather looks to be great all week.
Congrats on getting it all back together and being able to drive it to work as I can relate to some of the frustrations you have had with almost being done and a hiccup happens.

Oh yes, many more miles. I'll be proving the combo out tomorrow night. Keep an eye out for the thread. I have a feeling it will perform well. So far not one drip of oil or coolant after getting my AOS delete sorted. I'll be getting back to your pm soon, I've just been busy.

Are you still running 15psi Sid and if so, do you plan to bump it up at the drags?

The plan is to leave the boost controller off. I'll make some runs w/o anti lag to emulate what normal results would be. The plan is to run this week as is then change the cam for next week. Then turn up the boost

I am a little anxious , but not too much , because I'm not expecting much. I just want to get a few baseline runs done. Main thing is if I can drive it home will be a success. It's raining here at the shop right now, but considering the track is about 30 miles away that doesn't mean much,

Just called them - everything is still on (cloudy but no rain).
Hopefully some decent air - though high humidity and a headwind; right now effective altitude is still >7800ft:
