Default update 2nd track time

went back to the track and with all the minor upgrades and ricer math wa hoping to pull better mph.this is what changed

lost 100lbs-they say worth .1 or 1mph
slp lid-they say 1 tenth or 1mph
ported stock t.b-claim 5- 10hp
tr55 plugs
sux2bu ram air-internet says easy 1mph or 1-2mph

so if the assumptions are true i should pick up 4 mph. wrong it was good for 1.7 mph average. cant complain bought lid for 40$ and about 30$ at lowes for sux2bu


12.88@108.46

That's not bad. Other factors like d/a and IAT also have an impact. Looks like you picked up about half a second? Hard to read slips on my phone.

Edit: I think that's actually pretty good for the modifications and no tune, especially if you are on hard tires and stock suspension.

What's next?
