200mph in 1 mile

Update:
We never really got to see what the car was capable of running but it seem like 200 wasn't likely with the present setup. With the help of Japtrix Racing, Turbo Mike's and a couple of guys that have been passed the 200 mark I will be trying for 200 in April. There will be a lot of changes to the car to help me reach my goals. Here is a list of some of the upgrades.
20G wheel and compressor housing or gt3582r
Custom exhaust manifolds
1200cc injectors
Front splitter
Rear diffuser
There is many more things being done I will post photos and videos of the progress.

Sorry it’s been so long since my last post I’ve been really busy at work and taking my time tearing down this engine. The last shop to build my engine did a horrible job on the ring gaps.
Cylinders / first ring / second ring
#1 .025 .029
#2 .026 .030
#3 .026 .030+
#4 .025 .030+
#5 .025 .030+
#6 .027 .030+
The recommended ring gap from a 3.75 bore from JE is .018 and .020 I think this was my problem!!!!!!
No reason to dwell on the past he will get is in due time and onto the good stuff. In the last few weeks I have received all of the necessary parts to rebuild the engine and ordered to new Garrett GT3076R turbo with the a/r .82 tial turbine housing and all of the exhaust manifold tubing and flanges. These turbo are capable of making north of 500hp each. This will get me to my power golds of 800wrhp. I will post pitchers as soon as the good stuff starts.
