The techs there think they are the police. I know the NHRA rule book better then most of those morons. They used to try to tell me I needed an SFI fire jacket to run my SRT4 because it didn't come factory with a turbo.
I have the same problem at our local track which is why i rarely go.

That tech must have a very popular online auction for used helmets.  Haha.  He was very nice for letting me use it, but why all the fluff at the end about tossing the helmet if he sees it again?  Honestly I should bring the same helmet again and if he DOES recognize it out of all the helmets he sees on a daily and weekly basis...this guy is GOOD!  Mad?  Hell, I'd be impressed!  Haha!  Jeez, can't give a person a position that is even mildly authoritative and it goes right to their head.  But people are like this everywhere.  In most cases that I've experienced this phenomenon an actual officer of the law would have been more lenient/reasonable in the situation

So yesterday while putting on my downpipes I learned that either I or the previous owner put a hurting on the front turbo. Has some pretty good shaft play and doesn't spin to freely. The good news is no marks on the housing or the wheel. So I'm basically on borrowed time. So I may or may not run my car. But either way my dad plans to run his so I'll head up in the SHO.

Im looking into options for replacement. I'm thinking something may be restricting flow. I'm about to go on tasca now and build a list of parts needed for replacement.

ShoNoff that's crazy you discovered that and also good before a real issue surfaced.  Yeah I would be on the fence as well to run or not.  Either way I'm still planning on going.  I'm assuming because its Ford day it will be pretty busy compared to when I went on Street Night.  About what time do you think you'll be there?  Another thing, if that weather looks ify and its rained the day before, Friday I may not go.  I've done that before on a cloudy morning and they weren't open.  Long drive round trip for nothing in that respect.  Praying for good weather.

Yes inspection time for me is not very easy.  Biggest issue is my muffler deletes.  Fortunately the tech who removed my mufflers now has his own shop and suffice to say I'm g2g as well.  Still have to remove front window tint though. 

Weather forecast doesn't look very good in Epping for the 11th.  Fingers crossed. 

I want to find out how fast you are as well, we have similar mods.

I have mufflers.... but I have catless (like you) and that is an inspection fail here. Unless you know a guy, lol, I just put the windows all the way down and opened the sun roof....they never checked, luckily, lol

Lol I did notice that I never put my windows up and he didn't say anything ...its not exactly fun to take off and put back on but I do all my tinting myself so I just went ahead and did it.  Actually yes the catless downpipes aren't really passable.  I think by law in VT you have to have at least one cat and resonator, I do still have the 3rd cat and resonator.  I want to upgrade the exhaust but as of right now I'm unsure of any real performance benefit.  I know I can get maybe a few hp but would less restriction reduce back pressure and lose a couple tq?  Cutouts can increase boost spike
..overall I would want something similar to yours if I did, 3" back, maybe no mufflers still and get rid of 3rd cat and resonator.

I imagine the benefit would only really come with bigger turbos/injectors. I do get a little drone at certain RPMs, but *if* it bothers me, I just hit the paddle shifter, and viola, no more!

I think you're right about that but also I know that its not necessarily what one part can offer and how it benefits the most, its also all of the parts working together as a whole.

So NED....what do I need to know/do beforehand? Looks like for street all I need is an inspection (just done) and normal papers, plus the helmet (Snell 2010+) anything else?

Anyone know where to get 100% meth?

(Liquid kind, not the Breaking Bad kind...)

Local race shops are your best bet, sometimes tracks will have it, but if you can get VP brand, that would be the best product around.
