Nice improvement! Keep shaving off those tenths! Looks like there's some serious traction gains to be had with a tweaked setup and the right parts. With a 93mph trap in the 1/8 in a stalled auto, 1.5 60's should be in sight. 1.6's should be no problem. A 1.6 along should net you a low 7 pass based on your mid/high 7 with 1.8 60's. Keep the updates coming!
And as far as the Nittos go, they're great for the street and they last a long time with traction a thousand times better than street tires, but you're at power/torque levels with the spray where traction is gonna be hard to come by without a really sticky tire and/or proper suspension setup. Get an adjustable torque arm in the car and some MT ET Street Radials and watch the tenths drop quick!

thanks man. i know the tires are killing me. as for suspension, i got the qa1 or aq1s w.e it is i always say it wrong. i need to tweak them a lil. also need the stock springs up front. the eibachs are killing me not giving me enough weight transfer and the car is also hitting the wall at 5k so gotta get that right also.

my bolt-on car went 7.7s in the 1/8 and somewhere between 12.0-12.3 in the 1/4. depending on where it fell in the 7.x range and also how bad it hammered the rev limiter on the 2-3 shift.

well i got my first 7.7x pass on the bottle and not hooking till the sixty im going to put on some slicks, i got for a good price and try it out again. let see what happens now that i got the victor jr efi, upping the juice to 150 tuned mt slicks. even off the bottle i spun pretty nasty and got an 8.0
