That's for sure. Get your car out there so we can have some fun

Not sure on tire pressure my gauge broke at the track and last good run launched around 5k. Next time out launching around 6 and higher. I'm looking into 2 step stuff and still need a good dyno tune and meth for more boost. Just really focusing on driving and getting the feel of everything before changes are made

i found my sweet spot at 4500rpm and cut a 1.7 with 8 psi in the tires on a 24x8. The higher i raised the RPM the worst my hookup was. Also, you need to redline the shit out of 1st gear and power shift into 2nd. If you feel the car vibrating on top then you got too little pressure. If it's pulling either left or right on top then you have too much air.

All good advise dave def going to try next time im out just worried about breaking stuff but thats all part of racing. I feel like I can get away with launching at 6k on low boost and switch to high boost in 3rd or 2nd

Nice.. With those traps you'll be deep into the 12s.. And the launch, preloading does wonders for me...

you can go faster, i ran 12.6 at 109mph at 14psi letting off up top because the car felt dead (i was having boost controller issues i was really suppose to be at 20psi) this was on hoosier dot radials with an ok launch i kinda just rolled out

i preload alot (hard to do with the b15 tranny sometimes) and i do a 2nd gear burn out, i went through the water because the hoosiers are really a slick in radial clothing i think u should go back and get a crack at it

Maybe go with a inch smaller slick like a m&h 23x7 for your next set of slicks... 24s are a little tall for your power
