Something went wrong after this run. Have to get my compression tester from my buddy but I think I lost a couple rings

12.9 @ 106. Had more to give but just ran out of time and money
Yea. I was hoping for a 12.9 last night but didnt happen. Oh well. Im wanting to up the boost to 12psi, and put slick on the car. That should hopefully put me at a 12.5 but depending the out come of the damage that I find, this car may not see 12s on this setup.

You need straight up slicks. Do you have a LSD installed? If not, you will need that too along with some beefier axles. I think a set of custom axles will cost you about 700.00 if you don't already have them.

I would get an LSD but Im not waiting for EP to decide to send it to me so no LSD in this trans. I have the spare diff to send but not the patience. Im sure the axles will hold. Im trying to limit what I do to the trans as it is still a stock trans and dont expect it to last with this kind of power

So what exactly do you mean something went wrong and why on earth are you racing without a datalog going at the same time? That could provide valuable info as to what may have happened as well as any tuning needs.
13.1 on 6 psi is very impressive, you're a small step away from exotic car performance, quarter wise. 12 psi would probably put you right on top of 12 flat considering what 89jy did with his stock 3400 and 10 psi considering your engine is moded.
You need a big intercooler if you don't already have one and a 5 speed transmission, or just loose about 100 lbs.
I sure hope my car puts down some nice numbers when I get it to the track or dyno.
Dave you have to turbo your car, with your setup 6 psi would probably snatch the front end off.

I was logging the run but it was something that would show on the things I had going. Once I started digging I found out its something simple and not engine. lol. The diaphragm in my vac. modulator on my trans blew out so all the smoke I thought was from rings or headgasket is actually trans fluid being sucked into the engine. Itll be fixed tomorrow. Its already intercooled. See my thread in the Members Rides section for pictures. Only weight I can really lose from the car is my sub box. Everything else weighs nothing or its not worth the trouble to remove. With Full traction and full stall launch I can see 12s as it sits
