I know what you mean. I was pumped the first time and nervous, my hands were sweating. After the first time I went down the track I was really pumped and could feel the adrenalin pumping, it was great. The first time I went out I couldn't believe how fast the stage lights went, had no time to get set and BAM green. The last time I went it was at a different track but on a saturday night and it felt like I had all the time in the world to get ready. I don't know if they can change the timming on the lights but I think on friday nights it's get them running asap and get the next one up.

Imo, the supercharger times arent bad at all I mean the tb kit is nice but in an averege youre at high13s and sc is at low 14s so I think that margin isnt that wide and for the price and warranty difference the sc isnt bad at all

.It basically comes down to how fast you want the tC to be.

Either way I'm still jealous.

I have been looking for 6 months and thinking about the pro and cons of each kit. I'm sure I made the correct decision. Don't like the retail price of the kit make a few calls and get the right deal.
My stage 1 turbonetics kit. 4400.00 delivered and in 1 week
zpi stage 0 2600.00 delivered = ?

My last run was my best with a 14.9 but I think I could have dropped more. I was real dissapointed with how crappy my 18"S with Kumho tires grabbed traction. Wheel spin was HORRIBLE. I think after a few tries I will be able to get my times down.

Damn, those are some good pictures. I totally fogot how close i was to 13.9, 14.05, .05 aeay from 13's.....that is insane. So some bad news. went to the track last night, 14.1 cuz the track was cold as hell i spun all the way through 1st and 2nd so i know i would have hit 13's. Actually my MPH was 101. My 14.0 run was 99, so i dont know whats up with that. NO TRACTION
