Turbo'd Charger Running 11's in 2006?

[dudeiwin86]

i came across this vid on street fire.
when the hell was anybody running 11's in 06?
when was any body doing turbos in 06?

did everyone else totally miss this? or am i the only one out of the loop?

i know its kinda random, and maybe this isnt the best section for it... but wow?

look at the date added--- nov 2006

comments say the motor grenaded.. none the less, didnt even know people were doing thsi back then

Hmmm, that is interesting. I was unaware of this as well. Im sure a few guys that have been around here alot longer will chime in about this and speak from experience, but this is defintiely something I have not heard of before.

Naturally, I would have to assume that this car didnt last too long as the Predator stuff came out at the end of last year, and prior to that tuning was near non-existant. Either way, Im impressed to see that someone was tinkering with forced induction even back then.

That was a Hennessey build(hence the grenade)

[PaCharger]

Yup Hennessey - hadn't seen that video in quite some time.

Which means it's probably a $100,000 Charger...

rofl.
hennessy, go figure. very interesting.
i just met a guy like last week who left hennessy like 2 or 3 weeks ago.
had some very interesting things to say, he, having been on the inside, put an even worse taste in my mouth.

ill leave it at that because of all the political garbage people want to start up around here.

That maybe Bo's video. If you look just past the starting line on the right wall, that is Grinner hangin over the edge.

Here is my video of that run. That car ran well all day.

I picked up my 06 300C in august of 05, by early 06 it was turbocharged and ran that way till the end of term when it was turned back in.

CIS has had turbo systems available since mid 2006.

Guess our supporting vendor forum is somewhat overlooked, I need to see about that!
