Yep agreed, yet for some reason numbers seem rare, and the few youtube vids of acceleration are not great either.

Not 1/4-mile races, but take a look on YouTube at OKC Boostdz. He runs an A2A Stillen kit with 17psi, and absolutely crushes everything he races against. I don't condone the races he does, but his car makes some serious power, and somehow manages to maintain traction to the pavement.
ANMVQ, TopgunZ and wideglideleon like this.

Supercharged Z are easier to maintain traction vs a turbo Z ...turbo rolls on TQ much more aggressively ...most you can do is square up camber ..upgrade rear diff ...and run drag radials ....and add boost by gear ...I’m going through that now ..I’ll be testing it out this Saturday in darlington ...this will be my first time on the track soooo I don’t expect great times lol

You need positive camber due to the squat in the rear if you want a drag car.

like someone else has said SC isnt as aggressive with tq like when turbo boost hits lol

also with a good tune you can get the torque curve ramping nicely to minimize traction issues.
