That was with a 125hp shot. That's why I blew my spark out that much juice with a 181mm pulley is too much for these spark plugs to handle. Gotta upgrade the ignition now

Re: first to 500 hp

Don't forget to change your sig. It can say I blew my way into the 11's..
You probably still have people at the track picking up their jaws. Way to represent.

CONGRATS! Good job man. You are the first into the 11's! Get that bad boy dialed in and your going to be a total beast.

Great job, I am sure narrowing your gap will take care of that. My experience with FI has shown that going 2 steps colder on your plugs seems to make the car run a lot smoother once you start getting up there with power.

I've done this and went two steps colder with a NGK copper v-power plug, most sites say iridium and platinum suck + I indexed the plugs and am ready to try it again this weekend! I'll let you know.

Re: first to 500 hp

we kick the gap down to usually 0.032 to 0.035 on our tt stealth, glh omni, and srt4 all due to spark blowout at anything over 18psi. what did ya gap them to?

are you planning on adding a cage or is it just 11.49 and getting kicked out?

I would like to get the car setup to run consistent 11.90's as this is an officially indexed/recognized class at the big shows.

Re: first to 500 hp

Yes it did. 10.8 I think. See dragtimes.com. MDSRT6 is the fastest, with and without NOS.

Re: first to 500 hp

BTW MD. I was checking DragTimes.com. Just a little ego boost for you. Your SRT-6 is faster than the fastest recorded new GT-R on the website. You ran 10.907, the GT-R ran 10.956.

Very nice.
