Well I know of at least two....larry has some record for 6mt (9.3) http://www.spracingonline.com/images/news/18.jpg and it was basically the shakedown pass, they're not done yet, and there is another one running 9s with a th350 tranny. I'm really not up on VQs (its just my daily driver) but I talk to Vince (works at SP, we're both into MR2s) regularly and last time I was at SP they were rattling off the stats. I just found it funny you thought it was 12s, or maybe that was sarcasm and I missed it

Long story short. Original name was Sound F/X in 1988, Did high end stereos.... I did all the show cars for Pioneer, I judged IASCA events blah blah blah. Well I bought a 1989 Supra turbo..... I started modifying it... Made 567 RWHP in 1991 which was huge for back then. Some of the performance vendors would not sell to me because they thought I was an audio shop. SO I switched the name to include both sound and performance so I could do both. By about 1995 though we were ALL performance and have never looked back!!

I believe Injected Performance has the fastest TH400 time with 8.89 i think. And Sound Performance has the fastest stock 6 speed/drivetrain time of 9.35.

IP is running a Powerglide trans (2 speed) where the TH400 is a 3 speed.
SP has a TH400 car under construction now too though. So guess they are shooting for fastest 6spd and auto VQ's this season.

That's awesome to see that the oem tranny can hold that kind of power!

What kind of FD ratio are you running?
