I'm not sure..I'm usually looking at the fuel pressure gauge!It is sitting rock solid at 6.5lbs.

It was a very heavy street car night.Little track prep...I made 5 passes which I spun pretty good on 4 of them..60's ranged from 1.91 to a 2.25.On the first two passes I was having shifter issues so my burnouts weren't great and hampered the 60 foot times...On the 2nd pass I spun pretty good and I saw this grey sedan go by near the stripe,his mph on that run was 125mph.Then I found it was a high end Mercedes AMG s 65 v-12 twin turbo rated at a little over 600 hp .....So my next run I was able to line up beside the Benz again..I was able to get a good burnout..launched pretty good..and never saw him..I knew I had a pretty good run...a new best of 11.3893 at 120.63 with a 1.6802 60ftThe next two runs were another spinfest as the track got pretty bad after the sun went down and they were lining us up out of the groove because of all the trucks and daily drivers..Every run was in the 119's other than the 120...The cowl air cleaner seems to work pretty good in the cold..it has never had that mph before,and I've ran in cooler weather.
