Great times! I'm glad to see that you went with the BCM. Your car is definitely an 11's car, on pump gas, with just a JB4. I think that puts to rest any thoughts the 2020's can't make equivalent power to the PFLs. Having said that, 12,7 @76mph? Yeah, I'd say you definitely let off. You need to find a place where you can stay in it the whole run.

1/4 mile runs feel flat on the top end, not pulling about 3/4 way through which is why I had lifted.
This time was slightly better, still let off as seen by the 86mph trap spd...... Will try again and this time hold the damn throttle!! LOL

It definitely rocks the 0-60! Times are quicker than my GT3 Touring.. 4.06 best, but my manual shifting needs practice!

The 43's do run out of pull up top, because of the size of the turbos, which is why the mile per hour is normally lower than you would expect for the times that some guys are running. As for shifting, the best times that I've heard of guys running were always in auto w/ the suspension set to comfort vs. sport, to help weight transfer off the line. While you're in practice mode, give both ways a shot. Presuming everything is running well, I would think you should be running 115+ mph

I understand this in theory, but does the suspension setting actually do enough for the result of this to be measurable? I mainly have my rear tires about 2psi under my front for this reason, but I didn't think the suspension stiffness from Comfort to Sport+ would actually help.

It does make a difference. It has been proven by several of the fastest cars on the board. In most cases, a one tenth difference in 60 ft. time is equal to 2 tenths in your quarter mile time, so even small benefits count. Consider, that means that .05 second difference in the first 4 car lengths translates to one tenth off of your quarter mile time. In Sport+, the suspension is stiffer, better for handling, but worse for a launch from a dead stop.

I also brake boosted the launch to 2000 RPM.

Lots of options to make sexy! Front lip and trunk spoiler. Check out this C43 we did.
