Okay, so it was on a track, and there was some help from a turbo. Grid life last weekend was an absolute blast - the car ran flawlessly and I was super impressed by both the quality of drivers in my session as well as the beginner sessions for which I was instructing. Some video below for your viewing pleasure. Ignore the AFR readings - for whatever reason my data logger (a racecapture track) was set for a 11.9 minimum. Headphone warning - my gopro knockoff camera has a terrible microphone.

For the nerds out there - the most impressive part about this, to me, is how quickly the MAP changes with TPS. That's "turbo lag" for you - almost nonexistant in this setup.
Wow that lack of turbo lag is really stealing the show, what turbo setup is that?
Wow, that looks like fun! Image quality is quite good. What camera?
The turbo is an EFR6258 with a trackspeed cast manifold. 3" downpipe/exhaust, 2.5" hotside and 3" coldside for intake tubing.
Camera is a YI Lite ($75 off amazon). I'm trying to figure out an external mic setup so I have sound, but I'm impressed with the video stabilization for this knockoff.

I read the thread title and thought "i know a guy who went 119 in a 1/4 mile on a stock bp bottom end" but track is different, especially in terms of how long it needs to be able to WOT.
Car looks like a blast!
In reply to Vigo :
Stock bottom end in this car!
I was actually pricing out what it would cost to build the engine in this car earlier today... it ain't cheap!
