I need help
 
I'am so worried about my times at the tracks(13.7@104). I was expectiing to hit the 12z atleast, My mods are the tkt package minus suspension option. But everyone was tellin me i shouldnt sweat it to much because the track wasnt prepped and i was runnin full passenger,100+ degrees out, Took 2 hours to get to the tracks, AC on the whole way up,full weight, and my first time ever at the tracks. You guyz think i can do better then this next time? Please help s0o anal about the time. THankz alot

You mean TKT banzai? As in the Pettit 500 hp package? Umm, yeah, you should be hitting 11.4 at 126 mph if you do.

no i think he means the tkt bolt on which includes intake, exhaust, and pulley kit. Pettit claims 320 hp (crank I assume) Anyway don't sweat your first time at the track. I've only dragged once but to get anywhere near the limits of your car takes practice. If it was that easy no one would enjoy doing it. At those temps you would probably really benefit from a better intercooler. You will get into the 12's with your current set up and more practice.

I also have the petit intercooler, i actually have almost all of petit bolt on besides the suspension. But the intercooler was WICKED hot that day.

My advice is next time buy a cheap chemical sprayer and fill it with distilled water. After and between runs spray down the hot bits (IC, manifolds, Turbos). Don't idle too long waiting to run either or you'll heat soak your SMIC. (it is Stock Mount right?) You engine bay won't have much time to get air in to cool off the charge during the 1/4 if it starts out heat soaked.
