Default 00 formula vs 03 evo

this happened at the track on friday we lined up and the tree light up i have him off the line by 1/2 a car and by the end of the 1/4 mile i had 2 1/2 to 3 cars, i ended up running 14.03@100.86 with a 2.5 60ft and he ran a 14.3@97 his mods are only a blow off valve, thats his daily driver, he has another that runs 12.5 all day long. I think i need a tune cause i was expecting to be in the mid 13's with my set-up, am gettin a egr code and a o2 code, this is also at high elavation if anyone is wondering whats up with the times

i wouldnt blame your tune completely.

a 2.5 60' time might be the problem. you might need some DR's.

At elevation like that I would of figured his turbo evo would have done alot better. Either way its got to suck racing up there.

am hoping that what it is, am ordering a pair of bfgs on thursday, if i got my 60ft down to a 1.8-2.1 what could i expect as a et?


IF you get in the 12's here its a big deal, 11's and 10's are is so amazing to see here, it sucks to think that my car runs mid to low 13's but here its a second slower

I usually figure on .15 secs for every drop of a tenth of a second in my 60'. That's my rule of thumb. A lot of others conert 2 tenths to every 1 tenth of 60'.
