    I'm at 408 RWHP, torque is 383. Hopefully we will get some mine shaft DA and see what happens.

    This means with a tune, 3200 stall, drag radials, and complete exhaust system, I picked up right at .8 second in the quarter. I think I should be a bit better, but will give it through the winter to give some negative DA a chance, plus let me learn how to launch this 'new' car, to see what happens. I did get a log of the final run and send it to Patrick to see if he can massage it a bit more.

    There is a significant difference launching this car with stock stall and the new Yank 3200 stall, you don't just get these mods and expect to be at the top of your game within 4 runs. It takes a bit of practice.

    Yes, my goal is a 11.999, Patrick feels that I should be right at that door with a good and negative DA.

    As of right now, I'm about .1 to .15 away from my goal. My goal is with tune, full exhaust, drag radials, and a stall to knock off around 1 second. The .1 to .15 is taking in account of the negative DA I'm hoping to get which would take my 12.32 down to about a 12.15. Patrick doing some more mojo and me getting used to launching the car should get us there.

    The only real bummer about this is my gas mileage going DOWN with the new stall, but this was expected.


    I'm confused, didn't you run 12.6 or 12.7 a couple of times last time I saw you at the track, before you did the headers, exhaust, stall and full Patrick tune? Maybe I'm thinking of someone else, but I swear it was you...

    Yes, it was me. However the DA that night was around -600 compared to the +500 I ran the 12.32 in. That night I made 4 runs in the 12.66-12.69 area with just a tune, drag radials, and CAI. That did concern me, but two things. One is that I am having to learn how to launch with the new stall and two the DA is about 1100 DA apart which makes a significant difference. I did find out later that the Patrick G tune that night was a full one, but not put on the dyno for little tweaks.

    I made a little more power and less torque (414 RWHP / 369 RWTQ) on the same dyno and I'm usually stuck around 12.0-12.1 so your numbers aren't too far off of mine. What was your highest trap speed of the night? When I ran 11.99 I trapped 114.26. I'd say it's definitely possible for you in the right conditions!

    111.30 was the highest trap.

    I am hoping to make a trip down there this month or next. I still need to get my cam installed and get my 17 Hoosier Slicks put on. The 275 MT Dr just will not hold this FTI Stall, the TVS and a 100 shot lol
