Thanks, I am pretty happy with the results. I was up against an early 2000's Camaro SS w/ some mods on the 12.96 run.

Nice, I am going back to the drag strip next month. I am hoping to get a 12 second pass, but I am doubtful.

Or your clutch going south...


Good times at that boost and knowing the tune is not dialed yet.

nice work. whats your target afr at full boost? would you mind posting your spark table? i am currently at 235whp but i dont know if ill be able to hook up with my 205 tires. i am running a 6speed and have traction issues in 1 -3.... is track traction way different than the street? (never been to a drag strip but planning on going soon)

I usually target 12.0-12.2 at 12 psi. I am about to add water injection, so I will probably get more aggressive with spark. 205's will hook fine if the track is worth a crap. My car spins all the way through 1st and 2nd on the street and sometimes gets a slight bit of spin in 3rd but traction at the drag strip was not an issue. I have a 5 speed with a 4.3. Here is my current spark table.
