No expert, but your mph looks low...must be the converter.

Like its slipping? I havent had it tuned so it hits the limiter for a second when it shifts into 3rd everytime. But its only for a second. I am hoping with the tune it should help out.

On my other runs 12.50's I was trapping 110. But with the lower 60' faster ET I thought it was normal to have a lower trap speed.

should be a little faster. i would think once the car is tuned for the converter (shift points need to changed) then you'll see some better mph.

also - with that stall and gears you should have no problem cutting 1.6x 60' times even with a full weight car.

if you can't dead hook the car on launch then you'll need more suspension.

we have PLENTY of choices. i would recomend your next suspension mod being a torque arm. feel free to call me if you want advice as to which one would best suit you.

right now i don't see a reason why it couldn't be a 12.0x car.

first of 12.30 without a cam is pretty damn good. The same as 13.0's stock with an A4. I dont think youll pick up 3 tenths, but thats fast anyway. Whats the DA when you run

agreed - 12.30's in a full weight car with a stock internal motor is really good.

if he cut a 1.60 short time on that run he'd be in the 12.1x's

once the shift points are optimized he could see another tenth or two - having that big of a converter without the shift points optimized can have a big affect on e.t./mph

Also when its tuned depending on the power curve it may bump the limiter up a couple hundred RPM if its making power still. I should be getting it tuned and back out the the track in about a month or so. Hopefully with the tune and some MT's it should hook a little better.
