I vote this OP + build as new benchmark for results per dollar. Thanks for the epic contribution to the community.
Happy to help! The output per dollar on this kit is pretty unbelievable.

Nice now turn that B1tch upp!!
Fingers crossed on some 1/4 passes tonight... Ill make a few hits on springs and then work my way up to 10 psi is the plan.

I could only wish lol. Our track prep is terrible and i need that 2 step! Im gonna order it this week.

I dont know that she'll go 9s, but anything over 140 mph trap speed would have me stoked as hell.

At 10lbs with those 67's you'll definitely be seeing over 140 lol

@gimmie11s Congratulations on putting all of this together, very impressive! Do you have any data on how well the cxracing intercooler is performing? Thanks!

No raw data per se, but with any luck i'll have a 140+ trap speed time slip after tonight LOL. It's 70 degrees currently at our local track and DA expected to be around 2000 ft.

I thought I should add.... Yes the IC is cheap compared to some of the other fabbed units out there (Hellion or Procharger as example--Those are NICE!).

However, this IC has been used with great success on a few other kits/platforms. The recently released BBR 15-19 s550 single turbo kit uses this IC along with some others.

Other than CXRacing, the IC can also be found here: http://www.anfittingsdirect.com

Was able to get 2 somewhat clean runs in (along with some not so clean)... ran 139 both times.

These were on 8 psi. I tried to turn the car up but the track just wouldn’t hold it and I blew the tires off and almost hit the wall LOL. Not good!

Guess i need to buy some 17s for the rear and a 2 Step so I can focus on getting out of the hole quicker. This could have been a 9 sec pass with a good 60 foot.

I was running in full street trim. 18’s all the way around with a MT drag radial on the rear, stock mufflers, just like I drive it every day.

Need to up my game on the back tire!!

Man I was just about ready to pull the trigger in an LPF kit today. Didn’t realize anyone else was making anything for these. I do most of my own fab work but was trying to be lazy. This might be a viable option are
You happy with fitment? I would almost want to try the comp turbos oil-less ones and not have to deal with the feed and drains
