I think your 60-130's at 9.3/150 are high fours low 5's. This is great information although fairly useless to my build. This is what these forums are really for - testing via data and discussion. Well done!

This is true. That said - and as a person waiting for four months for my Gen V - this delay is not a random, non explanation in a vacuum scenario. The pandemic caused the delay - and yes Whipple and so many other companies who likely don't engage/invest in BCP and DR practices (business...

Understood and I very much agree actually. One GTR Shop for example did not sleeve their engines initially because the original Nissan design was superior for longevity. That changed as power levels increased however. It also changed due to both direct (intentional) and indirect (somewhat...

Well - said - and again no finger pointing or hidden messages intended. I agree - wasting money is not a good thing also lol. I have just seen so many builds fail because of trying to "walk the line" and my experience there has been to err on the side of overengineering (without spending like a...

For what it is worth - as per a few on here - the fact something can be done - doesn't mean it is necessarily a good idea lol. As I said above - it is possible to make the 900 with a 6 rib - and - obviously now - making 900 whp is confirmed on a 6 rib setup by a few on here. That said - I use...

I would ensure your fuel system is adequate - pumps etc., as E85 requires a ton of fuel - E98 even more (it is about 40% and 60% more if memory serves). I cannot speak for the MT82 changes - or Mustang clutch options because it was not a Mustang setup (F1A PC C7Z). Car made 880/780 with room...

Agreed - 10 rib is the way to go.

Lethal has a mod list for their dyno results and 1/4 ET/MPH trap. I unfortunately don't have that link handy - but it is in their threads if you search. This is their complete today mod list: https://www.lethalperformance.com/info/project-goldmember#modlist I started with that. Some research got...

Having been in this position before - there are alternatives. I had 555R's on my rears and 555G2's for my fronts. That provided some solid traction and still provided good handling and daily manners. I went to Toyo R888's after that - and they were superior but not by much. IMHO 555G2's are way...

For the record - I would like to say that the T56 Magnum XL name could not possibly become more machismo if it tried lol...could literally be a name for a condom brand.

Wow! Those are not a soft tire...Have you thought about Toyo R888's or Nitto 555R's? I understand not wanting to go to a DR - they can get pulled by any undulation in the road and suck at handling - plus zero rain safety.

3.73's - I am interested to hear your feedback on that gear with the Whipple. I have the PP1 and removed those 3.55 gears and went to 3.15's as that seems to be the setup of choice for drags (which is my first priority for the car). How do you find the higher gears on the street? I assume you...

That seems to line up with my wait time. We are later December and shipping is supposed to be first or second week May. We are about 6ish weeks ahead - so four weeks would be early June and extra two - mid May/late May. I am told they are accelerating - but who really knows. Challenge is still...

Yes sir...I am later December - so overall compared to others - if they arrive as promised - I am pretty happy for those dates.

You are November as well? If so - that is bad news for everyone.

I will let those chime in - but I believe they are good from what I heard here and elsewhere...my order was in December.

Exactly...there is always a positive way to look at any situation. I am good to wait.

SO - it seems - and say seems - that we will hit the 5 month point by the time we get the Gen V. Ship date - not arrival date first or second week of May. Wow. Well. There are worse thins in the world - that is for sure and I am lucky I am breathing and my Family thus far is okay. So - I will...

Don't worry - almost no one has the full budget to do any build - because it never ends lol...Being honest I am not familiar with the drags scene there - but I am fairly confident that you will be one of the quickest if not the quickest running a 1400+ whp S550. Mid 8's at about 165+ - only...

Cool - and yes - it is extremely expensive (clutch is about 12-15K USD as is the Trans) lol - I was fortunate to be sponsored for every build I had or else I could not have done it. I had an Alpha 16 at my top build back in 2014/2015. Bigger build GTR know what grit is to keep their builds going...
