Default 98 T/A Cam only 11s

Just got back from London Dragway, wasn't expecting to beat my previous best of 12.1313 in 950ft DA.

DA on this pass was around 2000ft. Mph is low because I let out just a tad early. It trapped 114.07 mph earlier tonight, best trap it's done is 114.3 mph.

Changes from my previous best is I added a UMI Adjustable TQ Arm (Pinion set at -2) and I deleted my 85mm MAF and went to a straight piece of 4 inch silicone tubing. (Wasn't using the MAF, just there to couple the smooth bellow to throttle body)
I also started tuning the car myself. Though the only thing that affects WOT is the shift points. I haven't touched timing or fueling at all and won't until I get a wideband.

Still running a Continental DWS06 in a 295/35/18 at 25 psi.

That's a great run, but there's a lot left in it....better tire could help you knock your 60' down. On a side note....you're not "cam only" if you're running a fast 92 lol. you're making good power for your mods and being an auto....so much potential left in your car, with some more tuning (fuel/timing) you can easily shave a couple tenths off....well done! what else do you have for suspension mods? LCA's? Fwiw, I run a Viking dbl adjustable drag shock in the rear...works well in conjunction with the usual suspension mods and a good tire.

For suspension it's super basic.
Stock Springs with Koni STR.Ts
UMI Subframe Connectors
UMI LCA with relocation brackets, control arms in the bottom hole
UMI trans crossmember with the TQ arm mount
UMI Adjustable TQ Arm.

I don't believe there's a lot left in the tune as it's been dyno tuned before, so I assume it's relatively close fuel and timing wise. Will definitely play with it some when I get a wideband hooked up.

Hoping to find a 3.42 10 bolt cheap, and get a decent set of drag radials and skinnies. Be nice if that could put me at 11.5 or so in similar DA.

I think 11.5 is doable with a good tire out back, and skinnies will knock 20lbs off the front. I run a MT ET Street R biased ply, 26x10.5 15” and they hook great. Good luck, looking forward to seeing you achieve your goal!
