vanilla, this WHOLE SITE needs a disclaimer Although I am not experienced with boost, i would say it's all about how much risk the owner is willing to take with the amount of boost used. A lot of people might be doing it but sometime, someone may get burned.

I guess I can't stay out of this either.


10psi, maybe a little more in cold weather with a 60 shot of nitrous and spraying meth. Mine is a daily driver. It ran a 8.86 in the 1/8th last weekend weighing in at 6200#.

Won't do you any good unless you are running a 2 BAR OS........ I will most certainly email a log though.....

BTW.... don't listen much to Bob... we accuse him of drinking the alky rather than waste it on the motor....

I do have to say though. I tasted some of Bob's alky in Nashville and it tasted pretty good
