hmmm....hard to say. Your location will play a huge role along with traction. In some places my car would be 11's no problem and 110+ traps, but here in the HOT, Humid *** deep south cars dont et and trap like some others do. Im modded alot more than you, and im only 12.5's at 109, but there are bolton only a4's in 11's trappin higher and better ets than me????

if you had longtubes + tune i'd say 12s, but...without headers i don't think you'll dip.

Didn't make it last week. Car wasnt picked up until late on friday. Felt sluggish anyway and wouldn't want to be dissapointed. Everything I read said give the ECU a week to sort itself out and I can already feel a tremendous difference after about 150mi. Sounds great and screams above 3500RPM. Dont really know if I care what it runs any more I like it that much. Thanks for the input and ill let everyone know hopefully after this weekend.

Well its friday and the quest hopefully continues today. Air is good as long as no rain shows up. Not putting Nittos on no time to f*** with it. BFG Gforce sport 275's will have to do. If I spin Ill know I made a mistake. Good luck to anyone else running this weekend and I'll post results asap.

Very dissappointing runs for the conditions air very good and 55 degrees. Car just not making the horsepower no MPH increase from stock. Vinci tune ran on first pass and car wouldnt shift kept hitting limiter and just quit on that run 2.059 60'. Took tune out and went 13.336 at 105.14(best mph of night) car felt ok no shifting problems, although a little sloppy, but certainly not what I thought. Third pass 2.057 60' 13.45 @ 104.23. Fourth pass 2.017 60'(Best) 13.336 at 104.73. Final pass third round of eliminations RED -.010 HATE THAT changed dial in to 13.30 air cooled just a bit 2.032 60' 13.313(Best) @ 104.90 would have pushed the guy out the back door if I stay green but whatever. 4k for 0.08 and no MPH increase something is just not right and I'll figure it out but there are the details. BTW only spun once all night on second run i think and tried to launch around 1750rpm on every pass.

Side note: Just reloaded Vinci tune and think I must have screwed something up last time because its now a totally different vehicle. I think I changed shift RPM and not firmness which might be why it had a hard time shifting at WOT. Today shifts are much firmer. Oh well Ive got plenty of time to figure it all out thats half the fun right.
