Default 13.57 @102 last night

Got back to the track last night, temp in high 60's.
First pass was 13.79 @101.86 w 2.13-60ft
second 13.69 @ 99.25 w/2.12-60ft
third 13.57 @102.58 w/2.08-60ft 8.91 1/8 mile
last 13.71 @1.1.56 w/2.11-60ft

I'm hitting the rev limiter at about 1200 ft. and crossing the line in 3rd gear in the sport mode. The last pass was spinning the tires, some guy did a burn out with street tires and drug a lot of water on the track, I couldn't get around it, my 60 ft slow down on that pass. I think it could run in the 13.40's if I can keep it off the rev limiter at the end of the track.

Spectre CAI and h-pipe and cheap mufflers, copy of somebodies. Thats it on stock street tires. Could have gotten into the 13.40's, but, ran out of time. Its coming, maybe next weekend again. I don't think the mufflers or h-pipe really help, but, sure does sound great.

Great times! If you're hitting the limiter in 3rd before crossing the line, then I think a tune to raise the limiter is your best bet. After the tune you'll need the extra rpm anyway

Yep, that exactly what it needs and I'm gonna need the tune to get it into the lower
13's. Nobody in our area can tune it yet. I have a friend thats going to buy the hp tuner programming, so, maybe this fall sometime.
