13's on Nitrous
13's on Nitrous i cant get out the 13's. WTF is wrong, is it the driver.
only mods are lid,bellow,filter,borla exhaust w/o plate, and nitto D/R's.
my best time N/A was
60' 2.146
1/4 13.878
mph 102.61
nitrous jetted at 75 hp shooting from first gear up at 3000rpm and shutting off at 5200rpm manualy.
60' 2.164
1/4 13.218
mph 109.75
60' 2.155
1/4 13.180
mph 109.71
my buddy with a 01 ws6 full weight & 290 lb driver,mods slp flo pac, ported TB, and cut out, on street tires got a best of 13.4 @ 103. and it was his first time at the track.
afterwards we did a N/A street run 1 passanger in his car, and i would beat him.
Whats going on?

your 60 times suck...sorry....I was cutting 1.8 stock that would put you around a 12.8.
Did you get your car tuned to run with the nitrous??
What kind of miles on the car. if its high the motor or trans could be tired.

On both. I'm a bit new and I know track cond/air temps/veh weight all play a factor, but I'm pretty sure with your mods you should be around 108mph N/A and over 110mph with a 75 shot. Have you ever had the car dyno'd?
Oh, also - an '01 will have a little better factory cam and intake (ls6) if I recall correctly). So your results are possibly the humdity/temps.

I'd rather have a slow T/A than have a fast stang, but I'd sure like faster T/A so I want to fix whatever is going on.
You guy's helped me narrow it down to my 60'er, my buddys are doing better on street tires than me and I'm on D/R's.
Beside's the driver what kind of things can cause a poor 60', because I honestly don't think it's me (A4)?
I have full weight and im about 240 LB's, wheels in the rear are 18" alluminum c-5 wheels with 285/35/18 D/R's with 18-20 PSI @ the track. Launched at 1700 RPM.

Did you have any issues getting the tires to hook up?

Can a bad shock cause a bad 60'
when I would launch it seemed like the tires where stumbling.

It's your car. Somethin is wrong. I ran 12.90s full bolt on with 2.0 60ft and a 12.1 spraying ONLY in 2nd gear. Even though your 60fts aren't the best you should still be in the 12's easily.

You need to do a couple of things
1. Get a TC around a 3500
2. Have the nitrous cut off at 5800
When you take off you are taking off at 1500 rpms or lower so you are waiting that long to hit the nitrous. Then when your car is the strongest you are cutting it off.
With those 2 Things I can see mid 12's if not a couple tenth's faster
