Thumbs up Took her to the track for the first time since Motor/Turbos

Well I just got the car back after the turbos catching fire and i figured since I havent been to the track since Last December that it would be nice. The runs were alright considering im on street tires at 38 psi that are near bald. but heres the numbers:

RT: .669
60: 2.17
1/4: 13.45
Trap: 104.69

RT: .489
60: 2.24
1/4:13.85
Trap:101.5

RT: .613
60: 2.49
1/4: 14.25
Trap: 104.37

RT: .628
60: 2.174
1/4: 13.59
Trap: 104.5

RT: .514
60: 2.187
1/4: 13.6.9
Trap:106.2

Im not extatic or anything but its about what i expected on my kumhos. What do ya guys think?

Not bad, but it depends on your mods. For all we know you got those times with a T-78 and nitrous. Kidding, I'm asuming your stock?

Could be/should be faster IMO.

What was the temp/humidity down there? And were these runs made on the 17s or on stock?

My 93 w/catback and downpipe only on street tires on the stock rims has gone 13.51@103.5...with your mods your car should be trapping higher than it was. Were you running stock boost levels?

stock boost for now. it was abou 80 down here at night. i had a ton of tirespin but i still thought my traps should be higher. I ran on teh 17s with 275.40.17 Kuhmo Supra Ecstas with a good amount of wear. IM guessing the problem lies in my launch and traction would be great. I have a few problems with boost pressure and i am converting to non sequential soon. Also i have a set of ET Streets on a set of 15x9's at home in ft lauderdale.

Not bad, I'm not sure how much temperature affects your hp, but I'd think your numbers should be higher. What kind of boost problems are you having, are they severe issues?

not severe at all. It feels pretty quick but sometimes it feels like its not pushing so hard, boost levels dont go above 11.

With just full exhaust and intake (@ 14psi), I've pulled cars that trap 108-109mph.
