Trap speeds?

What trap speed should I expect with 405rwhp & 385 ft/lbs? I am at 4000ft above sea level with mods in sig.

Thanks

I trap at 117 with a similar setup as you up in San Antonio.

I had a buddy trap 122.5-123 w/ 407rwhp. Raceweight of 3400, this was at sea-level though so he would prolly lose 2-4mph where you are at.

I actually lose about 5-6mph here at this elevation. Depending on what the DA is at the time. I guess I should expect to trap around 112-115mph. I was trapping 101mph bone stock.

Thanks

My car makes around 500 fwhp (guessing from maf flow rates) and my car goes 12.4 at 115 mph at arroyo secco. Of course this is on a 3900 lb turbocharged trans am with 2.0-2.1 sixy foot. The mph would go up a few with better traction.
