Thanks guys for the props! As far as the DD part goes well I don't DD the car anymore because I am trying to keep the miles down on it (currently 51k). I bought a 95 Ranger to drive back and forth to work since it's a 70 mile round trip each day. The car is fully capable of being driven as a DD, get off work, swing by the local 1/4 mile and swap the tune and tires and go run 10.0s all afternoon and every once in a while in good weather run 9.9s. Also remember this is with Stock heads, LS6 intake, injectors, maf and throttle body. Nothing to hide here!
I didn't mean to confuse anyone on the DD part. I only drive the car on the weekends now, so I guess i should have said "Few Pics of my 9sec weekend car that used to be and still can be my Daily Driver"

Maybe I am the only one but I wouldn't consider it a 9sec DD. You don't run the car in street trim in the nines. While it is a 9sec car I guess I am the only one who thinks its not a 9sec street car if you have to swap tires and tune to run nines. I have a couple of friends with 9sec street cars but that is on 17" MT drag radials that are on the car all the time. Beautiful car none the less guy, keep up the good work.

FWIW - It would probably run 9.8s if I were to use MT DRs and as far as the tune goes? Well the only reason I swap the tune is because of the low timing I run on Nitrous and every once in a while I like to play around on motor and it performs better NA with more timing obviously (17degrees N20 vs 30degrees NA). The swap of the tune takes approx 1 minute and 36 seconds with my laptop to reflash.
As far as your friends go what power adder are they running? Turbo or Nitrous, weight of vehicles?

I totally understand your opinion and respect it.

The first car I was refering to is a buddies 05 GTO with a LQ9 turbo build. I will see if I can find some info, I know there is some on this website but he doesn't frequent here. Car has 275 17" MT DR's and runs 9.92 @ 141.4 cutting 1.53 60 footers. Weight is all the way up to 4000# with the 4L80E that went in last season.
Another street car I was refering to is a fox body mustang that runs at Milan a lot. I don't have much info on the car other then 347 small block ford with twins. Car is insane and runs 8.90's on the same 18" MT's I run, 305/35/18! Complete sleeper, dead silent, looks like a 14sec car. More of a friend of a friend tho so I don't have all the info. I have a video of me running this guy at a NO ET event.

Good idea, however I have a $550 EFI tuning software I bought for 250 so I use it. The good thing about having a laptop is it has a scan tool as well as tuning tool all in one. I can make any change that any tuner can at any time.

I seen someone say something about a dual flash PCM. Not a bad idea but I don't think it is worth the money when it only takes a min to swap tunes. I am speed density and when the bottle goes in this spring I am just going to run the IAT trick. MT DR's are the only thing to run in my opinion. To bad they are $600 for the 305/35/18's I run lol.

One day I am going to put a built motor in my car as well and put some serious nitrous to it also, shooting for 8s on DRs so I no longer swap tires.

Oh, I see.... No disrespect but you are not comparing apples to apples. Fully stock 99 ls1 with all stock parts except for Cam Shaft (stock heads, short block, injectors, maf, tb, ls6 intake), vs LQ9 Swap GTO Turbo and Light weight 347 swap Fox with Twins. I've owned 4 Foxes and they usually weigh around 3k-3200 lbs. My car weighed 3425 on the 9.97 and 3500lbs on multiple 10.0s and one 10.003. Nice cars none the less....
