I saw on a different forum today that this guy ran a 12.2 @ 140mph or so. I dont know if it was when he had all that crap under the hood though.

I thought an engine needed to displace at least around 200ci before a twin turbo setup would be practical. I'm assuming the extra displacement from the supercharger essentially throws that all out the window. When will it go boom is what I'm wondering.

making lots of power all over the place, and still gets good MPG....my question though, how much weight has been added? Seems like your looking at at least 100lbs over stock...although he obviously makes enough power to offset that...lol

people time, money and imagination never stop amazing me!

Well, it gets awful gas mileage with the SC on, but I don't think mpg was much of a concern with this build :p
