12.662@109mph with LET tune!

As some of you all know I ran best 12.930@109mph with EVOTech tune, but
as of tonight this is my personal best.

Both runs had the following:

LET Heatexchanger
ASP 178mm 18.5psi pulley kit
Debaffled airboxes with K&N drop in filters
Code3 Intake (C32 T pipe)
stock ignition / stock spark plugs
Redline gearbox / differential fluids
Mobil 0w40 syn oil
AND 25shot dry kit into the supercharger

Also on both runs (Thanksgiving Eve 08 and tonight) my car noted 61deg
on the dash so it wasn't that cold. My car was almost 100celcious temp
and 204 to 212deg on my ac dash compartment

Kudos to Jerry and his fine tunning! I wish I took advantage of the dyno
day when he came to South Florida.

R/T: .287
60' 1.894
330 5.347
1/8 8.194
MPH 86.59
1000 10.614
1/4 12.662
MPH 109.81

Nice! Congratulations on the achievement. Now you can update your sig with your list of mods too.

LET Heatexchanger
ASP 178mm 18.5psi pulley kit
Debaffled airboxes with K&N drop in filters
Code3 Intake (C32 T pipe)
stock ignition / stock spark plugs
Redline gearbox / differential fluids
Mobil 0w40 syn oil
AND 25shot dry kit into the supercharger

I don't know if you also removed the resonator as well. Either way it's sound more than performance. The NOS kit, are the lines before or after the supercharger?

Do you have plans on running the car on a dyno soon? You should of ran the car at the track today. The temperatures are ridiculous today. You might shave off .1 on your time with this weather.

Do you have any other pics of your car?

Yeah just a dry set up, no fuel mixture into the supercharger, just a way
to lower my IAT's because my leaky intercooler is making my life a living
hell driving it

stock exhaust system, i love how quiet the car is and the supercharger
whines like there's no tomorrow.

the nitrous kit is spraying into the supercharger

I plan on dynoing the car soon, when work permits and the dyno place
calls me up to show up.

not as of recent, i restored the car back to stock looking w/the frosty
headlights too.

Congrats Rey!

It's clear your car is running as strong as the dyno claims.

Keep it up!

How much heavier are the C32 compared to the SLK32/SRT-6's cause I find of have the same setup (Code3 pulley/ LET tune) but run the stock All-Season Conti's and I ran a 12.2 at Bradenton Motorsports which still should be the same weather conditions as Miami. Only thing different is I have a Needswings Intake, not the OEM look but it works

Would the weight and maybe tire setup account for nearly a .4 second slower time in the 1/4. Mine's also a convertible so I have a little more drag but maybe the C32's have more drag?

Just a question I've been pondering lately

the crossfires are about 400-500 pounds heavier than the c32's, anad that usually is about .5 of a second in the 1/4

Corrected for you Jake
(normally dropping 100lbs of weight = .1sec off the 1/4)
~edit~ SRT-6: Curb weight = 3328 C32: Curb weight = 3605

My car is in the dealer right now but as soon as i get it back, we should all go up to (Moroso) now Palm Beach Int. Raceway. counting the MB and SRT's we should have about 10 people that would go. I think my car will be down for at least 3 weeks.
