I was excited when I found out that I can purchase my supercharger he just goes beyond and much further for the best service possible, if I could drive down there I would definitely go to see him and see what he loves best.. Performance cars and products thanks Tracy very much and can't wait to have the supercharger come up on my door step to drop my car off the same day and get it ready to make some serious power
Who is going to install for you

So I'm currently sitting at 365 maybe 370 rwhp @ 10 psi of boost, I plan on taking the car to the track this Friday and seeing what kind of numbers I can get. I'm honestly not spinning my tires much at launch (on normal street), however I am running 305 nitto's which might have something to do with it..

So, you are the gift. I thought you were supposed to receive the gifts on your birthday. My gift to you is a day at the track!

Went to the dragstrip tonight, 98 degree weather at the strip and I'm running really rich at 3rd gear and up (in the mid 10's!). Anyways the DA was over 2,300 and the weather was just crap to begin with (way too hot and humid!) all the cars at the strip were running slower than expected (Evo's in the 14's and 5.0's in the high 13's). I don't think the track prep was an issue. This track is known for being one of the best in the countries. I'm running 305 nitto's in the back and was cutting 1.9 60 foot times. I'm launching around 1,700-2,000 and the car hooks pretty good, just a little bit of wheels spin and the car pulls really hard in first and second. However in third it just feels weak, I finally video recorded the AFR and boost so I could review it when I'm not driving. Looks like the AFR starts out fine but then gets pretty rick (in the mid 10's!!!). So looks like Vince and I have some work to do...

Check out the video of my gauges:

Ohh can't belive I forgot that.

60 foot: 1.927
1/8: 8.687 @ 78.19
1/4: 13.74 @ 100

Basically that's barley better than what I ran N/A on E85, however terrible weather conditions and at running REALLY rich is the issue here, I believe. There's not doubt this thing pulls WAY harder now, the issue is once I get on it, it's really rich.


After watching the video again, but in slooooow motion it looks like the AFR down low is pretty rich but higher up into the rpm band it leans out to mid-high 11's right were it should be. This, IMO is why when it gets in 3rd and has that long gear it feels like it's lacking power.
