    • he didnt have his old combo dialed up much at all so it wasnt very impressive. he didnt want to blow the tranny, so he was only running 5 psi with those huge snails

        5 psi total, or 5 psi each?

            • not sure, we'll have to wait for jonny to chime in. It was nothing to do with the setup though, his old one couldve pushed a lot more than it did.

              • i thought he had somewhere in the 12 psi range

                • per turbo or total is the same thing. If im running 5 psi, its 5 psi per turbo and that is also the total. 2 turbos doesnt double the PSI. I ran 5 psi last year on stock motor. made 420/413 and ran 12.03 @ 115 .

                  This year i plan on getting a starting tune around 12 psi.

                        • too damn long you better make some mad cash and have no expenses, I have neither so I have to rag on Jonny when I can lol wich is pretty much when his cars isn't running. His car will be MUCH faster this year. I say 1.2 seconds off in the 1/4 the first time out at 130mph or so.

                          • thats my first goal, to break 130 mph. End goal of the year is low 10s at 135. The only reason i can afford this is because i am going to school on golf scholarships, have a good paying job, and only have a few small bills (phone) and pay for gas. And i save all my money for my car I dont really spend it on much else
