Well he didn't exactly build a car FOR the shootout. His build was invited to it, and showed the virtues of a balanced build with aerodynamics, a dialed in chassis, and extensive driver education trumping FI spend-it-to-make-it builds.

I just wanna know why he took the SC off though. Your statement doesn't really answer my question. If he kept the SC on he would've made it to top 3

The blower needed to be rebuilt after 3 years due to oil consumption. I decided to sell it after the rebuild and start planning on the next step in the build to make more power.

The SPL front LCAs are fantastic. I love them.

Unfortunately my GoPro decided to stop recording before the final lap in the 4th session of the Super Street 86 Show Down where I set my fastest time but here's the first 10 laps of that session with data overlayed.

I've used OEM most often, but just recently I switched to AMSOIL http://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-produc...mission-fluid/
