Just got word Jim was at ATCO today at a track rental and ran a 10.90@122 this was with a 1.48 60 foot time! He really picked up alot in the 60" time which is what carried him into the 10's! He wanted to run nitrous on the truck today but the bottle leaked out. Well I just wanted to be the first to say " Congrats Jim !!!!" and you know he'll be bettering this time at JDM Day next week!!!

He's still running the Mag SC with a BIG A$$ MF Lower Pulley (prob running well over 20lbs of Boost) As for temps it's a Beeeeeeeeeautiful clear day today, (upper 60's). Awesome #'s for a 112cu in SC and no spray.

Thanks everyone! Even though I ran into trouble on the planned spray runs, I salvaged the day by loading up the C16 tune and ran "boost only". The weather was pleasant, but not great for performance. The truck was in street trim.(I drove 165 miles to the track, and back home also).
I think there is a small amount left in this combo, but not much. Maybe a 10.7x in perfect conditions. Probably will run nitrous from here on out instead of pushing this setup further.
See you all next week at JDM Day!

Jim

Congratts Jim
looks like you really hooked up off the line, thats a great 60 foot time.

Now get ahold of Vinny and have him get you a 10 second club decal for your truck

Welcome to the club

Good job, Jim! It's been a long road, hasn't it.
Congrats to you.

The coolest part was seeing you carry the front left for a good 20ft.
