Ran consistent 13.1x@106 all freakin day, this thing is a bracket race queen lol. Best time was a 13.05@107 on a 1.98 60'. Factory summer tires @ 28lbs. I WILL get 12's this summer dammit :devil: Temp was 65-75* and sunny, so Im sure running on a cool night would net me a 12 second time slip. We'll see what this summer brings :flame:

Good job and Mike tuned it up pretty good. You'll get there with cool evening temps.

those are some sick numbers you put down on the dyno...I'm pretty much the same as far as mods and your about 10-15+ more HP/TQ...not sure how much of a difference HSRK and X-Pipe make...but seems like quite a lot!

Nice runs! I think I am going up Friday night now that I'm back from vacation. What did you find worked the best for taking off at the start? You run with TC on/off?

TC off, and I was using various launch RPM's. Brake torquing anywhere between 1200-1700rpm. If I go Friday I gotta play around and see which one works best for 60's and ET's. Im hoping for 12's, the car has it in it easily, I already know that, I just gotta get it to launch!

That was my plan...though wasn't sure how much it would bite with the new tune. With the stock tune I had no problem biting at 1400 RPM...but things are a wee bit different after Mike had his way with it.

Once my Potenza's have seen their day, I plan on putting some 275's in the back. Should help a bit. Can't justify to my wife buying a set of DR's after buying winter tires....but I'm poking away at a supercharger lol

Pulled up behind a black GT-R this afternoon (whom by the way lives near me apparently)...I told her I'll need that supercharger and a few other goodies now that they've moved into town.

Congrats on the runs. My track hasn't opened yet because of weather.
