SS/TC vs 5.0 Mustang and z31 w/ turbo swap
The run against the Mustamg sucked. He started off in the wrong gear(which is why I got a nice jump), then when I shifted into 4th, power felt non existant and then the coupler on the turbo blew off. Only run I was able to get with him that night though. Also ran a z31 300zx that was gutted out and running a Holset HX35 turbo. Enjoy the video.

Honestly, I'm clueless. There was two guys with z31's, both had HX35's, and I ran the one they said was quicker. That's about all I have. If I see them at the next local meet, I'll prod them.

Either AVP in Tennessee, which I don't recommend, install it yourself or send it to Nistune Australia lol

From a 40 I got him by half a car at the top of third(95ish).

They may have upgraded fuel systems, definitely still stock heads and cams I'd bet, they have no top end power on stock cams but tons of torque especially down low. Good kill, Z31's can be sneaky. If you ever find out what all they have let me know.

I'm hoping to have some good video this weekend of my Z31 against a bunch of Cobalts lol. The South East GM meet is this weekend. I'm the token Nissan owner!

I think you would have taken that 5.0 pretty easily, even with out the coupler blow off. It probably has the 3.31s and is stockish by the sounds of it, good runs. Good run with Z31 also.

Off Subject Question:
Who had their Balt built up to a 600+ HP beast at Limitless Performance Fabrication (Scythe Snake?) LPF has just came out with a Turbo kit for the 3.7 stang and saw it on there, 600+ HP is what was advertised on the site banner and it looked pretty sweet.
