It doesn't matter if it gets 300 mpg. It REALLY sucks when (not if) your car breaks, at the track or wherever.
I broke an axle on the starting line. The starter said, "Well, it hooked". Yep, and all of the money flew out of my wallet, because of that hook.

Lund is one of the most likely sources of a tune.

The K/SA index is 12.65, and the current I/SA record is 10.93. There are plenty of these cars running mid-11s with stock engine/turbo/converter/gears/brakes and heavy wheels/tires...

Is Lelchook's car silver? I saw a video of a 9.45 @ 146 lap that looked like a street car.

He's reportedly been 11.29 @119 and change on a stock engine and stock turbo...

Yes, it is Silver. It went quicker than 11.29 on street tires and 93 octane pump gas with stock exhaust and OEM weight.

I'll throw 2 cents in on this. I don't have a turbo car but I have used C10 & 260GTX with an O2 sensor. And I've tried to use an O2 with leaded fuel. While in my case the lead did not "Kill" the O2 sensor, it Did make it lazy. On a different vehicle that I just worked on, Leaded fuel "Murdered" 4 O2 sensors. I don't know the brand of fuel (or the brand of sensor) but it ran at Bonneville @ least 10 years ago.

Thanks, Dave. That was my concern.

I came across a list of Ecoboost Mustang quarter-mile numbers that are below index for K Auto. These are not necessarily Stockers, but other than the top part of the list, most of them are startlingly stock street cars on street tires.
