Very impressive! What fuel are you running? What material do you have across your front bumper? Also, are you running spacers on the rear Rufs? The rear wheels seem to be sitting very inboard. Congrats on your run, that IC is a work of art.
I ran vp 109 as a safety precaution. But it's tune for 93 oct. I wrapped the front with vinyl wrap. The ruf spacers are removed on the back because I put taller tires on the car to get the speed. IC works great

Really cool... Did you log any data (I'm sure you must have)? IC temps?
