With all the learning that PCM has to do? I dunno... it'll be interesting to see what his car runs. Put me on record as guessing mid 13s

I think low 13s with street tires and high 12s withs slicks. But I guess it all depends on his ability to tune and then launch with the new power Godspeed to you Bill!

12'* are tough even with slicks, mid 13'* street, 2 10ths better with slicks, optimal conditions and tune would yield 13.2

Need ported heads and intercooler to see 12'*
Still theres gonna be a PB in the mix as he tames the beast

That'* what I'm hoping for this year.

Boosty has a cam, gears, N* TB and timing control.

I have the water injection.

I figure our race weights to be similar considering my size compared to Boost'*.
I just lost 20 lbs since last year.
You do what you gotta do no matter what

It'* a good day to die.
