He's got a nice list there, if he lowers his boost to where it should be it would run stronger. Don't know if that throttlebody is a bit of an overkill but I would need to research on it. Other then that its a nice mod list. That MapClamp could be holding him back too but its his car. I would have went with a different tuning device having all those mods. I say he just needs to lower the boost at this time, he's doing more damage then good.

He wouldn't race again ... i know i would have taken him. I am getting really bad boost lag because of the tune so i am going to try brake boosting next time. I am using the apexi afc neo to tune.
Yeah thats why I'm saying the 26lb is doing more damage then good. He should get some sort of ScanGauge to watch his knock and timing adv... I bet one or the other isn't looking pretty... maybe both. Went with the Apexi Neo I see, how is it with tuning? Pretty easy? I haven't messed with one, I've only messed with SAFC I and II.

I say he's already got knock. All those mods and no ScanGauge = FTL!

im not worried about the camaro, His weight is so much more then me and i will pull on him as soon as i get traction. The stage 2 srt was brake boosting also. Looks like my car isnt as slow as alot of people figured it would be ha.

The srt-4 pulls strong and his dad owns a race shop. There is no telling if he has a couple more little things that i dont know about. He has an air fuel gauge mounted in his car and he monitors everything while he is racing. He is buying a 60 trim i guess so i wont be able to keep up for long.

you should be able to get the jump on him even with the 60 trim. thats all top end. if you hit it right, you might have a shot. those have bad turbo lag. it doesnt really matter what he has, like whitefwdsm said earlier, over 20 to 22 lbs of boost on the stock srt4 turbo is pointless and hurting it more than helping it. i have mine spiking at 22 to 22.5 but dropping to 19 at redline.
