car is in my sig. completely original suspension from 1987. even the shocks. The only thing i did was bag both sides. My car was very inconsistent. I had to leave @ 0 boost. any boost would fry the tires. Also, track conditions worsened as the night got later. 275-60-15 mickeys @ 18psi with about a 10 second burnout in 2nd gear.
Looking at HR bar, control arms (adjustable or no?). Maybe some new shocks on all 4 corners and delete the front sway bar? Car is street / strip. Far from a daily. I have a new, nasty 109 being built but I was trying to get a 6.99 / 10.90 pass on this stock longblock just to say i did it. Ultimate goal with the new engine is mid 9 sec street car. So my upgrades need to reflect my end goal. Car will get a trans brake one day.
My car may already be able to hit my desired numbers, but my boost control was letting me down. my 7.35 pass was floating between 22-25psi. I will be back at 30+ next trip. Using XFI to control the boost, but i am installing an external gate in the manifold soon.
Lets see what upgrades everybody suggests. Local tracks are often no-prep at all, so that is a concern.
