It's worse for you..

When getting your DA you got the time from 2:53... You can't get the DA from 30 mins before if the DA's getting worse. You have to go to the time closes to your time but after your time not before.

The DA you picked..

1.8 60' with a stalled auto on basically slicks is really crappy.

Your power band is not the same as when it was bolt ons only. You need a converter that flashes higher, as that's where you power band has moved to.

Data log your car when you go to the track man.. If there is anything going on, in your driving, shifting, converter locking up, etc. it will let you know, and you can correct anything that seems wrong..

It helped me a ton when getting my car dialed in.

He said he would redyno the car ... See when the next time they're going to the track and have them Data log it... If something was wrong it will tell you.
I'm pretty sure they would do this for any customer.

No reason to get shitty about.. I understand it’s your car and you spent a lot of money… But when someone is giving you some idea in which you asked for” if anyone of yall might have an idea” don’t just dismiss them because it’s not what you wanted to hear.

Winner winner chicken dinner!! Should do a 1.6 at least

G-force is top notch, I was randomly at a track in Dallas one day and Mike happened to be there. He was willing to data log and tune my car on the fly even tho they didnt do the work or owe me anything!

Oh no I'm not getting shitty lol... I know my converter is not big enough... and I would data log it if I had the software to do it.... like I said... I was just curious of some things I needed to look at... it was just shocking to me to bust off a 12.0 corrected 11.8... just thought I would atleast pick up a tenth instead of running the same et... especially after having a bad TB and a stock fuel pump( now a walbro 255)... but I'm gona address the converter issue soon

I will put it this way I know with your mods it should be a lot better.. Bigger stall would help a lot.. But with what you have it still should run better… Do you know the weight of your car?? I know you said full weight but would still like to know what yours weighed in at. Also was it full tank of gas half tank …¼ when you ran the car??

When I’m trying to get every bit out of my car I run my car under a ¼ tank lol But that’s just me being OCD lol

As for the Data logging see if G-Force will do this for you.

Any reason you still haven’t changed your stock suspension?? Are you trying to see what it will do as is or just haven’t got around to doing it?
That will help you a lot!

Damn that ****’s heavy 3800lbs

Just something to look at..

My car weighs 3340 with me in it... I haven't cut anything out of my car.. Just took stuff off that wasn't needed I still have my seats in the car.

http://www.karlsnet.com/mopar/datatables.shtml

The old adage is that if you remove 100 lbs from your car, you will run the 1/4 mile about 0.1 seconds faster, which corresponds to about 10 hp (100 lbs=10hp=0.1s). This is an okay rule of thumb, but it is not that accurate, so the above data table is the exact calculations for removing weight from a 2850 lbs vehicle (the weight of my Shadow with a 200 lbs person in it). The numbers work within 2% if you go all the way up to 3500 lbs or down to 2200 lbs, so this table is pretty accurate for determining horsepower and 1/4 mile time changes when removing weight.
Please note, I used the 'Approximate 1/4 mile equations' posted in the Formulas section, but I altered the ET equation. I used 6.357 instead of the 5.5 as the weighted constant in the ET formula because I felt it reflects a more conservative scale for weight loss and 1/4 mile times.

I also dont believe you're that far off, at 117 mph you should be going around 11.50s and thats with a good 1.6 60 ft time. so you're not that far off base.
