Our Personal Best 9.5 @ 148 MPH

[97GSTAT]

Hey just wanted to let you'll know our shop car, Fusionworks Racing, just set our best pass to date with a 9.55 @ 148 MPH. This was the first race of the season for us with a completely new motor setup and only the 3rd time at the track with the automatic as well. We are thinking we still have about 30-40% left in the car as well. Here are some vids we took of the car starting from right off the trailer to finals. Oh and this happen at the Kansas City Import Faceoff.

What are the mods on this machine?

 

[97GSTAT]

It's a 99 GSX that was converted to an A/T. Tired of breaking M/T's. Other then open downpipe, it's fully street legal. Tagged and insured. And we did pull out the win on the last race. That little rotary launches crazy, he pulled a 1.40 60' to our 1.53 60'. It was our 9.5 to his 9.9 @ 135 MPH. Like I said we still have room to go as this was our first time at the track this year.

Mods list is.....

Mild stroked 4G63...was a 2.3 for the last 4 years
BC 288's....waiting for a custom grind Kelford set
Kiggly Beehive springs
Saum Engineering Ported Head.....local machine shop here but nationally know.
AMS Race Intake Manifold
Shearer Top mount Divided Exhaust
BW S372 turbo
PTE 750HP Intercooler core....going bigger now found the limits of it.
ID 2000cc injectors
AEM EMS
MSD ignition
ZEX direct port nitrous setup
IPT trans and billet converter

about all I can remember right now.

As of now we are thinking at or above 700 at the wheels. Unfortunately we only have a FWD dyno at our disposal, so we are not for sure. We are full weight minus a carbon fiber hood. And the MPH backs our thinking as well. We have our own sponsored drag event May 22th so we are going to see how much more is really in this car. We'll keep you'll posted.

Congrats on the times. Looks very good. Hope to see you get more out of it. I just started my daughters AWD Auto build. I am looking for a Precision 750 intercooler so if you decide to get rid of that one let me know.

Thanks for all the compliments people. As you all know a DSM is a headache most of the time, but when it does what you want it can't be beat.

And if you can send me the pics please do. I'll PM you the details of our 1st up coming event.

Here's the only good pic I can find so far of th car. Cliff the promoter for the IFO series took it. We were just to busy to remember to take pics.

Right now it's a 125, but we might need more. Redline is 9800, but we are shifting at 8100ish.

That car has come a long way. I remember talking to you guys at LAST year's KC IFO race when you were having issues. Good to see you have the car sorted out. Congrats!

Lol, yeah last year was a challenging year. The IFO last year in KC was our first with the A/T setup. And we were more there to get feed back on what the car was going to do. A week later we ended up getting everything squared away and ran a 9.9 here in Wichita. But we also lifted the head as well. Like I said 2.3 we had last year was the same motor we'd use for the last 4 years. Thanks again we are planning on pushing it more May 22nd here as well for our own Import race, Fusionworks Drags. Hopefully some of you KC guys can make it down for it.

Only using it through about half of 1st gear, then all turbo from that point.
