Its not always quite like that. that looks like the work of a boost builder program on a big (really big) turbo.LOL
My car will extend the shocks the lenth of the track but nothing like that.
We'll see with the DFI though.

My car will top out the front coils on the highway at 75 MPH when you kick it down into passing gear.
Does the same thing but more violent at 40 MPH and burns the tires soon after...


I made 14 pounds of boost on my stock 350 a few weeks ago!
