I ran 12.80 with the stock tire and the intake and exhaust. I only got one pass in the 12.8's.
To our fellow member who said 12's are slow. Let me tell you there is nothing slow about 12.42's. on all motor. My friend the car is moving at that time. It pulled hard through all 5 gear's and there was no driver mistakes on that pass.
I wish that i live closer to Jnaut. we would have a great 1/4 mile run agaist each other. plus with him working on my car i now that it would be quicker as im running my own Cobb tune on the car and i know that the Uprev tune would give it more power. Im not a tunner , i just keep ajusting the fuel settings.
To the guys who live in high elevations your times are great consdering the conditions you race in. Be proud of your times for if you raced a sea level your cars would be way faster.
My elevation is 650 ft. At sea level i would be in the high 12.2's.
If you put my set up in RCY's car he would be running 11.5's or better with that stillen SC.
