Passed the last few days in the Caribbean working on cars with Mitch McKee for the final "sauce" on this tune. I've been often helped by Mitch for about 6 years now and he's been a great support, always like his philosophy on his tunes trying to make them as consistent as possible to deliver a great driving experience every time.

We went yesterday to track that car on a crazy wrong air strip, uphill (like reaaaaaaly uphill) and stoopidly dusty. I managed to get a 7.13 eight mile which might seams not good for some people but we would trap 108 miles an hour on every run which is probably a better sign of what that car could do on a ¼ mile and a real track.
Car is running ALPHA 9 upgraded turbo/intercoolers/IC/piping-intake combo.
This setup is completed by an HKS Superior Spec R exhaust, oil pan and fuel pump kit on ID1000 with T1R fuel rails.
The gearbox has been greatly built by Sheptrans who did it in just a few days.
Engine is 100% stock, stock pistons, stock rods, stock cams…
The car is on LC4 and we managed a 0 to 62mph in 3.1 sec:
This run is in metric and km/h :

Our customer would just keep passing at 7.16 every single pass in AUTOMATIC mode(4 passes = same 7.16 all the time):
I went manual all the time so needed to learn and progress every run: 7.35 / 7.30 / 7.15 (right after Mitch telling me how disappointed he was about my times compared to our customer's ones) and ended at 7.13, here are the 2 last runs I did:

Thanks to everyone involved in this ( Mitch and Eric at AMS, Tony at ID & T1R, John at Sheptrans and Joe at COBB).
