On its way back home...

No..It didnt follow me home...A truck is bringing it home..

Some of you may remember the Dk.Blue T I had a few years back,I bought the car back Friday.I sold it in July of 07,The guy only put 700 miles on it Since.

Here is the for sale ad I originally bought the car from.It lists all of the mods,Along with a link to a little run at ATCO...19psi...The car was a beast!I had a little run against Hooooober at ATCO also,I had 215/65/15 Firestone street tires on the car,And ran a 12.1 at 122.x.. He might even remember that night...

Original ad I bought it from... 87 T-TYpe for sale 10sec car Tallahassee, FL - TurboBuick.Com

Here is the link to the Video.. Full weight street car with power everything and i- Video

Here are a few pictures of the car...













Coming out from Colorado...Will be here next week sometime Hopefully.

Will apply for the NJ Tag... Sleeper

Ok...But Im not sure if it is fair,You with that Big roller cam..Cottons front mount...And Big BB66 Jap Turbo..

And the Blue car with a lil 206,No front mount,and a Forty something turbo..

But we can give it a go...

I have 65's that will go in when the car gets here...Along with new TT Chip.Me and Paul were looking at a few Blasts he had saved on his Directscan,Car pulls like a freight train,Especially at low boost.Was still pulling 10+mph per Second at 90mph.And that was only 18psi.

The car will need to be dialed back in though.I turned it down to 15psi when it left,and pulled the timing out as well.

No excuses..Just busting chops.

I never mind coming out and teaching you youngsters a lesson..

And that 11.0...That was about as easy of an 11.0 as you could come by,19psi...No crazy boost spike's...Just rolling along...That pass I had The Beta Wideband chip in the car from TurboTweak...Testing it out.1 of the very few that were out at the time...Couldn't be bought.

i couldnt turn the boost up,I was out of injector..The 1 thing we noticed with the wideband setup at the time was it was using alot of injector to keep the airfuel steady.I was up in the 90% range on the duty Cycle..which is way too much fuel for 11.0 on a 55lb injector.

That 11.0 run translates to 10.40 at Cecil...lol

Hoobs tuning advice would sound something like this...never look at the boost guage...You go faster that way,Who cares how many hundreds of pounds of boost you are running,if you dont see it,it doesnt count...And even if the motor falls out at the 330 mark...NEVERLIFT!!!

You should of seen the Directscan pulls at 18psi with the Gn..OMFG!!!

With the new tune and New converter...im sure your car is going to run very well.
