Tom, congrats on a sweet setup. The V6 elitists among us (you know who you are) can kiss your 12.xx azz. You have done a great job putting together a unique, fast drag car, and you deserve props for that.

While I'm not a V6 elitist, I will say this... To many talkers, not enough walkers in the 4 banger Contour stables. All of this time, the Zetec guys could have been running special heads, cams, cam gears, the turbo kit... Don't hang on to Tom's shirt tails and expect us to be impressed, it won't happen. Tom, great job on the engine. I can't wait to see you run with the taller slicks!!!  Extra nice that it's in a daily driven car too!

leave it to RARA to bust off on the "boost threshold" vs. lag issue. i was all geared up to write a long-winded, "do-you-really-know-what-lag-is" reply but brian nipped it in the bud.  oh well. maybe next time.

Let's just say some of the walkers aren't talkers.
Nice #s tom, I think you are definitely the king of tuning until the EEC tuner comes out.
