> you guys already seem to know what my car is about… no its not the stock turbo. the 5 speed is a getreg282 well capable of what the car is doing. yes tuning is important. right im running 16 psi 17\* total timing (factory is 8) AF ratio is perfectly between 11.8-12.2 ,by saturday another tune will be in running about 22\* timing. if it blows i really doing care i have a brand new motor capable of making way more power on the same turbo/boost that will probably go in early next spring anyway along with a few other things.

> oh and the car that ran 13.5 on a gt3076 was running mechanical fuel regulator instead of tuning fuel through ecm/ map. The guy never ran the car with that turbo, that run was in fact a gt2876 on 9 psi. 13.5 on a basic topgun 160 chip tuned for 22# injectors with 30# fords and a potentiometer wired into the map. My car is not tuned like that. This guys car , Jud who infact has recently passed (RIP) was in his late 60s i believe and messed with the car as a hobby, also in fact bought it brand new in '90.

I just googled it. lol.

So what turbo is on your car?
