Depends on weight. 103 might be a little optimistic. I did 101ish at 220hp.

Car has ps and abs with cc and ac deleted, still . Car is probably 2300lbs?
Maybe reading sonofthehill's thread are getting me too optimistic

You can't use launch control because MS1, right?

That'd be a pretty sweet use of ABS! Honestly, I wish I had ABS for only this reason. Well, and the fact that it helps save you from getting flat spots on tires too easily...

ABS != LC. It can do traction control with extra hardware.

If it's your first trip to the strip then you are probably a bit optimistic. Launches are the most important part.

Whoops. Thanks for the correction. I thought you could program the abs computer to do other fun stuffs.

You can use the abs sensors to do traction control things, but the abs computer doesn't do anything but abs

Yeah, that's what I was getting at I think. Thanks for clearing up the confusion though!

Really? I'm running the original v3.0 DIY kit, not a pnp, I remember seeing greddygalant running it on his gen 1 pnp along with flatshift.

I'm so down to make the trip up to Epping with you. Let me know when you go! Plus, I'll make you look great I've never dragged before. Would love to get kicked out because of no roll bar

This thread helped me a lot Megasquirt Support Forum (MSEXTRA) ? Can someone identify mods? Launch control? (View topic)
The only reason I asked is because I have no idea whether you have a 3.0 diy or gen 1 pnp. I don't know if you have to mod the gen 1 pnp to get launch control/ flatshift

I think you can run no roll bar in epping as long as you don't run anything faster than like a 13 flat

Oh thought it was a 13.99. Maybe that's for having a passenger? Either way I'm in

Wednesday Street Night | New England Dragway
13.99 or faster needs a helmet
13.49 convertible or faster needs a rollbar, I doubt either of us will run under a 13.5 being my first time aswell

Going to assume it won't. They would need to look under the car to see where it ended. Imagine test and tune tech will be fairly straightforward

I'm local to Epping but haven't been to the dragway in a while. Would love to get my car out there the same night you guys do, if I can get my car sorted out in time.
