yeah he's taken it to the track, but he only took it there once, and when he did he only ran it three times... when he took it to the track it wasnt tuned, it had a shitty head, it didnt have the tranny or and it had the stock clutch that wasnt grabbing too well and he wasnt launching right... the first time was at 14 psi and the timing was off- he ran a 16.1(shitty driver )... 2nd time he messed with the timing and upped the boost to 16 pounds... the car died half way down the track b/c the intercooler pipes blew off... it ended up stalling on the return road too... 3rd time he fixed the pipe and ran a 14.7... i personally think its his lack of driving skill, tuning, and other mechanical problems he was having that slowed his car way down... he told me though that with all the problems fixed and a good driver it should be in the low 13's- high 12's range... now i know i can trust him a bit more since he's not tryin to bullshit me... does anyone know what kind of power figures its probably putting out? does this sound like a good deal to you guys for the price? thanks a lot guys
