Is My Car A "DOG"
Hey guys gonna make it quick
13 coupe non PP no LSD , eurocharged v5 (made a previous post about not being happy and/or seeing results from this tune) 2nd cat and res delete with straights.. Afe filters , charcoal delete....
Best run so far was a couple weeks ago in 90degree weather 12.302 @112.4x mph that was with a 1.82x 60ft .. Went back today to Etown raceway park
Got 12.55x @112 ?? Always trapping the same always similar 60s 1.9s .. Very frustrated doing everything right lowering tires to 28psi and driving style doesn't matter weather I use race start or manual mode with traction completely off .. Basically same results??
Also weather was perfect today mid 70s
What do I do?!

You should easily be trapping 117 with those mods. Something is wrong.
Edit: Just saw that you're running your car in 90 degree weather, that could be the culprit.

I'm going to Atco on Friday with a couple of buddies. If you'd like to join, I have some new OBDII software - we could hook your car up and check codes etc if you want.
Weather here was no good, otherwise I would have seen you at Etown last night. Great conditions after it cleared up I bet.

There's clearly something wrong with his car. Mine is a stock '12 P31 coupe and is both out-ET'ing and out-MPH'ing his car, same wheels tires. Maybe the tune also didn't take or whatever, but those times/mph are not right for a stock car even. At this point, neither highway pulls or a dyno will do squat for him - he has no baseline to compare it to, and any healthy stock car he uses for a baseline will outrun/power his car. He needs a dealer/mechanic, not more beating on the car.

unplug the battery and let it sit for a few hours and try it again.
Did you have a handheld tuner? Or did you go somewhere to get it tuned?

Sounds to me like there is an issue with the tune. The ET and trap don't add up, considering what these cars can do.

I'm out of ideas ? Maybe I need to check the welds of the straight pipes? Is there such thing of a leak maybe? Also alotta people say to check the filters how they was installed etc, I really don't know and I am really pissed to be honest I see how quick these cars are especially with the mods I have
