The question remains, where is the rest of your time going ???
How much wheelspin are you experiencing once off the line ?
Whyich tyres ?
Tyre pressures ?

Any pics of the car ?
Here is a picture I dug up. from last year
It looks a little bit different with the Aero lip and black centercaps and lowered just a bit more.

Gareeb, were your runs on pump or race fuel? And how much boost were you running? Thanks.

Car looks great!

Gareeb,
Congrats and if you dont mind me asking about your car's specifics as my car is at Protomotive
as we speak?
Do you have hard piping from turbos to intercoolers and Protomotive Custom Intercoolers?
Do you have custom Y pipe with larger throttle body?
Do you have K24/18g turbos with upgraded waste gate actuators?
Do you have upgraded fuel pumps and larger fuel injectors?
(in addition to the obvious upgraded fuel pressure regulator)

thanks in advance!!

I think it is because we are "downunder"
We use up most of our traction just hanging onto this damn planet...

Gareeb,

Did you buy Scott's set-up?

Scott had everything I listed EXCEPT larger throttle body.

Your car should really fly! Good luck with future runs.
