I headed out to the drag strip tonight, and of course on the way there I noticed a boost leak Figures car would act up the one night I need her to run good. I could only hold 11psi, stock sequential, other mods in sig. Not to make any other excuses for the poor times, but track conditions were terrible. I had talked to a few others who are regulars there, and they all told me that they have never had traction issues so much as tonight. Anyway,Here is the breakdown of my run:

60' - 2.25
330- 5.858
1/8 - 8.74
1/8MPH - 84.7
1000 - 11.19
1/4 - 13.2
1/4MPH - 108.1

Im sure if I would have been running my normal 14psi , and if I could have gotten any traction, it wouldve been a high 12 sec run.. but ifs and buts dont count, so there ya go

With better traction a 2.0 60ft is easily achievable on street tires, which would put you down to a 12.7 or so. Add in the increased boost, and I think you're lookin' at mid 12s

yup your 60ft killed you! got get that baby down in the 1.9 range on regular street tires...

fact is u need proper equipment when drag racing if u want to get times that are more indicative of what the car can truly do. i am refering to drag radials or better yet et streets. they are a must if u want "good" times.

Yep, not trying to make any excuses, my launches sucked and if I wouldve spent a few minutes going over my car before I went out I wouldve spotted the boost leak ( IC coupler slipped off, I was using cheap hose clamps) I wouldve done much better. The track DID suck though, but oh well, always next time

Completely understood, but I do want to see what my car is capable in full street trim. Then from there I will just go out looking for the low ETs.

I was pissed when i went. I couldnt get any good 0-60 ft times. ran a 12.4@ 119 with a 2.4 0-60 ft with my twins setup. Keep practicing!! You will get better

119 is a hell of a trap for stock twins...how much boost were you running?

matty

yeah i hear you, but if thats the case the most important number is your trap speed.

matty

i trap 118mph on stock twins with 1.00 PEAK boost (14psi) as measured by the power fc. engine is original stock port with 50k miles on it.

73828793

what size injectors are you using?

matty

1300s. i was maxing out the stockers when @ 12psi. was seeing hiogh 90s. wanted to feel safer so i upgraded.

73828793

i'm assuming 550 and 1300's for your setup...
