Yeah, the trap speed made me figure I was gonna lose. With an over 2 second 60 ft and running a 13 second et at 112 means that the car is pulling hard top end!!
I've raced an SRT before that had similar mods and it wasn't anywhere near as fast. I think Pete's SRT is a factory freak. Which is good for him, and bad for others
It must be the black 04's!! Mine was freakishly fast....til it broke. I was bonestock, and I would walk on my buddies 04 Red SRT which had a side-exit exhaust, MBC and intake. He was a pretty good driver too.
If you're friend wants to run, we can do that. Maybe that will go better than my race against you.
People on streetfire have a lot of trouble believing I lost it seems.

yeah i saw that i replied to most of there posts they jus can't take the fact that an srt-4 beat an evo in a fair race haha but if u want wednesday i will help u look at your car to see if u have boost leaks check all your vac lines and everything i will give u a call
Alright, Yes I will verify Pete's slips and bald tires. I'm looking at his slips right now. This is what they say since he is too lazy to put them up here:
Reaction--.4391 (ya I threw the red)
60ft------2.0607 (good tires, hooked up pretty good)
330-------5.7638
1/8et-----8.7879
1/8mph---82.88
1/4et-----13.5419
1/4mph---103.19
I came to the conclusion that I don't have any top end pull like Pete does. If i did I would be running faster than him. Anyone know what helps that out. Anyone know how to get a better 3rd and 4th gear pull.
With TBE, Flash and MBC, you should be pushing around 320-330awhp. The whole Buschur/Warrtalon package deal for $1,300. I know his VIII was at about 300awhp with that, and the majority of IX's they put the package on were pushing 320-330awhp.
I'd definitely check for boost leaks and such. Even so, good races and nice cars.

Yeah, i don't get people sometimes. It's not life or death, it was just a race.
I do want to check for boost leaks though since everyone is saying such. Do you have something to check for leaks or am I going to have to buy a boost leak tester?? You can make them out of parts you get from Home Depot can't you??
yeah u can there are how to on the forums here but u need a good air compressor i used a small one when i tried doing mine and it wasnt compressing enough air my boost gauge wasnt even goin up but i was checking all my vac lines and i found a big leak i forgot to cap a line haha but it was fixed i am not sure if i have any now i am assuming not b/c my car is pulling hard but i do know that if u haven't checked u have them haha
The problem is that everything was installed professionally. So I don't know where they hooked up stuff!! I gotta find out all the pieces I need to buy from Home Depot so i can get the stuff i need.
If you guys want to come help, i'll cover dinner and stuff. Or beer, that's up to you guys. I don't drink, so their is usually a ton of beer left.

These are the #'s from his 2 slips sitting here at the computer desk. No #'s were changed.
Not a prob dude. I wasn't here when you did the boost leak test I was on leave. I think I could find one somewhere.
