Default 1/8 mile times

Well I ran for the first time since I installed the TTi turbo kit. I'm only running about 3-4 psi as I have a 10.8 CR. Anyway, I just had street tires on so I was spinning like crazy. My best was 8.645@91mph which is pathetic I know but it was only at 4 psi...I'm hoping to spray a 125 shot this weekend...

Still running street tires this weekend? If so that is a waste of time.

Bain your right, I saw thread was being hijacked so I decided to add some useful info. Like the conversion factor from 1/8 to 1/4 mile so the original posted can get a better yard stick for comparing his Et's.

BTW: Guess Who, that is my 1/8 mile time smart ***! You in the south? Im in Toronto but my car is in Greenville SC. Stock suspension one system on 28's.

Well attempted to run but the n20 was giving trouble and I had disconnected it and not really connected it back properly. Anyway, I must say, the n20 did come on and I have never felt anything like it....didn't get a good time cause street tires were abesolutely useless so feathered it the whole way down, but MAN IT FELT GOOD. I think I've figured out the problem now though and I should have 28 x 10 on the way soon so I'm hoping to lift the front wheels...I'll keep you posted. Oh I got a 9.1@94.5 tonight.....

That time is decent for your mods, but your trap is very low. Im sure you can pull off mid-low 7s at a good mid 90 mph.

I mean Tr 224 and heads. all you need is slicks and a good 60 and you should be low 11s man.
