Wow I'm honestly surprised it was that slow! I was hoping to at least run 12.8 on the street tires...

Put a 3:23 rear in there and you will see 11's on a good tire. I went 11.80 on Nitto's w/ the same bolt-on's and a 3:23 gear.

Idk just my guess, I think best Ill get is 12.7-12.8 on street tires after I iron out my issues. Since your on an ls1 intake I guessed a bit lower, hence the 13.0. Only one way to find out though, get out there and post up after.

From what I've seen, 2.73 cars and 3.23 cars pretty much run the same times with = driver.

I know senicalj ran 11.9X with his SS3600 and bolt-ons, although he has an LS6 intake. Not sure on what tires he used for that pass.

A buddy of mine has DR's on his RX7. He said I can borrow those but I'm not sure if the bolt pattern of the wheels will be the same.

To put the street tire time in perspective for you, I ran a 12.88 on drag radials with everything in my sig before I had my stall and cooler installed. DA was around 1500 or so. To get that time, I had a half-decent burnout, and removed my passenger seat, spare tire, and jack.

Now granted, I'm not a light guy, so the car's race weight is heavy, but it still took my NT05r's to get dialed in to 12.88.

And I've got stock 3.23 gears.
