Default new best

I ran at the track tonight and got a new best time a 12.13 at 109mph and a 12.17 at 111.9mph, my 60ft were identical at 1.75, i really think that i can break into 11's if i can get traction in the 60ft

OMG !! Man, I know you must know someone up that way who tunes LS1's ??!! You should be shifting around 6300-6400 easy with that cam .There are alot of guys in Maryland who are apart of Eastern F-Body Association who tune cars all the time. Here a link and maybe there is someone close to you that can help you out. Good luck !!

I bet once your car is tuned ,you should be able to run 11.7's or better easy .

thats what i was thinking, i got it tuned in glen burnie but the reason my shift pionts r so low is because i had the car tuned then took it back bc i was hiting the rev limiter on the shift from 2-3 so i went back and he droped the rpms back then found out that the trans was messed up so i instaleld a trans but never got the shift points readjusted

your rev-limiter is probably set to low or you were spinning and your car shifts so quick causing you to hit the rev-limiter. do you know where your rev-limiter is set ? You might want to try this with this when you do get it tune......1-2 shifts 6300/ 2-3 shift 6300 / 3-4 shift 6300 . As for your rev-limiter ,set that at 6700 on all shifts. One thing about an A4 car ,you don't have to rpm the **** out of it . hopefully someone up that way has a hp tuner or something to help you out ,man. I know your car will be running great once the bugs are worked out .
