Default LT1 in the 12's

There was hardly anyone at BB this past Friday night. Had less than 15 people doing the Test-N-Tune stuff. They have the bikes and gamblers runs.

I can say that the car did AWESOME. Not sure what my DR tire pressure was since i forgot my gauge.

On motor. I did a 12.8 @ 104 with a 1.7 60'
80 shot 12.4 @ 111 with a 1.9 60'
120 shot 12.2 @ 111 with a 1.7 60'

On the last run, I had to adjust the nitrous to come on later because I would spin too much. It also kind of cut-out on me when my foot slipped a little. I think I need a bottle warmer to help with pressure. This is with WAY too much timing being retarted by the Mallory....5 Degrees.

Car weighed 3500 lbs with 3/4 of a tank of gas. I think If I can drop the weight a little more, get some better tires....Ill be in the 11's. Mods in sig.. Stock internals.

Nice, Good runs. I have to run mine on the 1/4 sometime soon. It will definately be in the 12's. I am about 3450lbs with me in it, and that is half a tank of gas.

THATS HOW YOU USE WHAT YOU GOT!!! no real big power adders, just opened it up in and out, and good traction/launch with the a4 = nice 60' times. very nice!!! i like your sleeper look too.

That is with a homebuilt wet kit. It looks even more of a sleeper with my stock salad shooters on there.
