7875 + 5.9 + E85 + Megasquirt

Around 3k. 2-step kicks in around 2800rpm. I could probably build more boost but would have to stand on the 2 step for 30 seconds.

Have you made any timing manipulation tables once on the 2step? Yanking 15-20deg out really puts a lot of energy in the exhaust on my combo

I do as part of the 2-step params. I pull a lot of timing.

Next big upgrade. Preparing to have a cage installed. 12 point, mild steel.
I’m going too fast for just having lap belts as the only safety feature.

Welcome to the cage club. Going to have your door bars swing out?

Pro street door bars and rear runners. I bought everything through Rhodes.

 

[Matts440]

Oh okay nice. Easy to get in. Rhodes has some good quality stuff, my x brace is from them

Caged and back home. Turned out great.

Looks great. Are you going to have it certified?

No not at the moment. Not sure the old man door bars would pass cert. I am confident it is well done, safe and would pass otherwise which gives me peace of mind.

That looks great! Can’t wait to hear how it affects your handling and launches

Painting the roll cage. Another one of those “I’ll never do that again” projects.
In white primer.

Looks like you inadvertently did the floors regal red also.
Cage does look awesome though.

lol. There’s a fine pink mist overspray everywhere in my garage now. I’ll be cleaning it up forever.

Slowly putting this thing back together.
Painted the dash with the same spray can Rustoleum and put a matte clear on the top part to give it that factory non-glare finish. Turned out decent.

Put this Kilmat stuff all over the interior. It’s the poor boy version of Dynomat. Great stuff, easy to install but it def adds some weight.

 

[TT5.9mag]

Really want to see it but for some reason your pics didn't load.
