I like that they’re bragging about it being NHRA certified as the world’s fastest production car with a 0-60 of 2.3 and 1/4 mile of 9.65 @ 140mph but it’s not actually allowed at an NHRA track because it doesn’t have a cage.

[/quote] I’ve heard it still runs 9s with pump gas and the slicks on the front. [quote=“HouseS2K,post:39,topic:274479"”] Only 32hp gain on race gas…? Seems a bit conservative. Gotta be a lot more left on the table for sure. [/quote] They don’t up the boost, they really just get more aggressive on the timing. Its a twin screw, so unless you’re swapping to a smaller pulley how are you going to gain much power from a tune?
