Our chassis guy is the crew chief for Brent Rau. Brent runs a single turbo, 2.0, 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse with a best time of 6.94@198.47 on his non intercooled 4 banger. Brent was the guy who told me to yank off my a/w aftercooler and just use my w/m injection for intercooling. He wasn't wrong. I'm now switching over to E85 as well. Jim will do great this year, as always, but I heard they cancelled Drag Week where I was hoping to meet him this year.

Thats what i was wondering also. Are you gonna do some kind of progressive linkage or are you gonna make them open at the same rate/time?

i dont know if drag week is going to happen or not but if it does go down i will be there with something.

we are going to try just linking them together. have them open at the same time. might be kinda twichy and if it is maybe work on a progresive set up on the pedal.
