I may try a spare ECU with a race tune next. MHP cams look very promising. Honestly, I think a higher stall torque converter alone will put me on the doorstep of 10's in good weather.

10's with full interior is possible
We did it with mikes car the 1st 10 sec passes on a c63 at Atco.
Stock rear wheel and skinnies up front no lightweight rotor either (only front at the time)
That was also done on a 93 oct tune with mix race gas.
You can do it just need to make a lot of passes.
Heck I ran 11.19@125 with full interior and no weight reduction at all the same day -1700Da

Ps on 18's u should use M/T's better 60foots

I'll be trying the M/T's again once my Nitto's are done.

Thanks Hagi.
