So I went to truck nationals today at NED and ran a 11.80. It was cold and the track was sticky. I just got my new et streets mounted yesterday and they helped!!!! First run right off of the street (well after i changed the tires) I went 12.0 @ 117mph with a 1.94 60'. That was on 15# of boost and with 18# of air in the tires. Next run 16# of boost and with 16# of air in the tires I went 11.9 @ 117.6mph. Then after letting it cool down and turning the boost to 17# and lowerin the air 15# I went 11.8 @118.93mph with a 1.89 60'. After that I went 12.0 a couple of times and one more 11.9. then i fryed plug and didnt have anymore with me so my day was over But I am happy. So now it is true. There is hope for the 4.8l after all.

 

sweet deal man! you really stepped up that 4.8L......Impressive times to say the least!

 

Congrats dude! did you stick around after and clean up the parking lot for them?

j/k, awesome times!

 

So how much more is left in it? I know it forged and all that I would think that you could squeeze some more out of it. Still runnin pretty good. Hell of alot better than my truck right now.

 

as far as I can see you are the ONLY STS truck in the 11's.....SWEET deal for you!!

 

I know that i can run 18# of boost. I should be able to pull a 1.7 60'. And when my boost controller broke i ran 20+# of boost for a day. So i think there is still some good power in it. And they when we step up to a 76mm turbo, i will just spray it out of the hole

 

congrats man, nice to see a 4.8 pull off some 11's...sweet deal.

 

Sounds like a plan man should run like a rapped ape.

 

That's awesome man!! Congtats on the great times.
Now get that Naaaaawwwwzzzz on there and do a 10 second run.
Seriously though that is a great achievement!

 

In due time
