I am in need of more power I do not need it all the time just every once and a while. If I stay N/A I will have to loosen my suspension up hurting A/bahn performance. Help me out. If you are wondering why I need more power I will be playing with Super Street Cars in Dracten NL 10.90 index but its a smaller group than street machine 13.00 index.

I personnaly think that you are crazy for wanting that beast of yours to go faster. But I would go with a couple of turbos, then put it on the gas. Just my .02 Euro.

I just think that a 175 shot would be alot of stress. You know that I am not the mechanic type, but with the turbos you can achieve about the same with less stress to the engine itself, then put on a 100 shot and take maybe two seconds off your ET.

Hey Bruce
That might be an uncompetitive bracket class for you.
It all depends on tthe rules, ie stutter boxes, throttle stops, trans brakes, fire systems , roll cages.
Basically it boils down to if you want to run a 10.90 index you better have a 10 sec car.
Good luck Man

It is not really a bracket and I am under the impresseion if it is the first time I qualify for the class then I can race however I will check into it before I do anything else. I may just put 6cyl springs in it and stay N/A and sandbag less stress on everthing.
