2013 Roush Supercharged 5.0 Vs Supercharged DCT M3 I think i had some 95 octane left in the tank, I dont recall since last I drove the car. But Meth was off as I thought it was cold enough to see what it had. I probably should have kept it on by the 1/8 mile mph and lackluster 1/4 mph
Im also on stock X again. Sorry guys, its quieter and a tone I like more, but its robbing me MPH, so im going back to mean and nasty..
I ran 11.9@ 123.7mph the run before this, (2.1 60') But I dont know if its artificial from the shitty 60's I have again even on Drag Radials. Mike@VAC is correct in that we need a lineloc to do proper burnouts. This is on my list now..
Its crazy though that my ET is STILL sitting the same, 11.8/9 even with a huge flux of mph difference (119-123)
The mph improvement could also be because I think it was -1300 DA
That was actually the best run for the Stang, the 2 runs before he was 11.9@117.

reliably? that depends. rumor is that we have bearing issues, some motors seem to be fine, others not. I know 1 guy that has put 40k hard miles @ 8 psi w.o issue.
I know another guy thats on his 3rd m3, and another that took his kit off for bearing sounds after 6 months at 7.5 psi..
but everything else, is about 8-9 psi, 9 being a gamble
im on 6 psi right now, but going to 7 next week

lol, yea, DCT is tricky to launch, so in reality, when the 2nd light pops is when i have to just mash the throttle and wait for the dme to tell itself to go, sometimes its early, sometimes its way late..
stock + blower @ 9 psi, some suspension mods, not sure what

im still confused at that answer. Is it a stage 3 roush with comes with a blower and its 100 percent stock with the exception of the suspension? Or is it a stage 1 roush with an aftermarket blower on it?

Im not too sure how many different configurations there are. I know he threw the blower on about 3 months ago he said

we were both on them! I cant do a burnout with out a line loc, and temps were near 40, with a 3 hour wait in between.
