Steve, I am thinking if your mods were on a car that weighed what mine does, 3860lbs, it could have hit 9's. That is a 520lb difference, and it looks like 1/10 usually equates to 100lbs of lost weight.

One of my 11.0 runs, poor ZR1 tried to run me down but my lady would not have any part of it!

Anybody else find the end of this video hilarious?

60ft 1.85

Headers

Cheers

Nice!

Work on that 60ft and you will be running mid-11s

I guess then the next step is bigger burnout to get more heat in the tyres and lower the psi in the tyres?
I'd also like to run somewhere with better track prep.
Maybe swap from the MT to something else? Everyone over here runs MT streets.

This... IF you can cut that 60 down by .2, you'd run about an 11.5.. 1.85 is not a great 60 for drag radials and 16s.. Definitely try to run when the track prep is better..

Your psi sounds low to me. I have a similar setup and I run low 20s. Great trap with at low of psi though

That's pretty good. You can definately get a lower ET if your 60 gets lower. If the prep is good start out PSI higher and if its not hooking then take the PSI down a little at a time. I've gone down as far as 12psi and as high as 32psi. It all depends on the track prep. Good luck!

I know there are more people modded around here. You don't have to be chasing records. We just want to see what you have and what works best on our cars.

Let's keep this going guys.

You will be a lot happier with the gt30r series turbos. Quicker spool and still capable of 600hp each on kill. Quick spooling 1000hp capable v12
Can't wait to see what that monster can do this fall. Are you doing anything for the cooling side or just waiting to see what its like first?

Thanks Bro! Cooling is good. You would not belive why my IC's were not working last time at the track...It had a piece of rubber blocking one of the tanks, inside the IC...It must have sucked it in that night we were wrenching...It was blocking the airflow on one side of the engine bay. I will datalog with the new set up and take it from there.
