Before I had the SC on, i ran 12.82 @ 106, 1.81 60'

today i ran the first time with the supercharger today: 11.66 @ 117, 1.71 60'

the first pass was the fastest of the day. i didnt think i ran that fast, i was suprized when i got my slip.

I didnt have any wheel hop on my first pass, but a little spin on shifts so i took a little bit of air out, went from 21 psi (MT DRs) to 16-17 psi and started getting wheel hop at launch and shift from 1-2, 2-3.

I am suprized of the wheel hop, i have never had it before, i have LCA and UCA, i think i need shocks my squeak a lot nowadays, i have been looking at QA1s.

anyways good day, my friend with a 2010 gt500 with a TVS on it only got a 11.51 so i know im close to him at less then half the price he paid for his car.

What was your buddies trap speed in the Gt500? Probably a little higher then your's I'm guessing.

NICE! And congrats getting the KB installed and getting it out to the track!

adjustable shocks will help you get better times. Fun times!!!

What pulley are you using, how much boost are you running?

im running 9 psi, its a 3.50 or 3.75" pulley cant remember off the top of my head on a 2.4l KB. not the 2.6l. its tuned with mild timing because i drive it often on the streets. i wanted to have a nice street car thats easy to drive to work and stuff.


also, thanks for the few odd parts i needed :)

That is awesome dude. Congrats on a successful install. Taking over a second off your times........amazing. I too wish I could cut a 60ft like that too.

Does your track require a rollcage at 11.50? Mine does, wont let you run if you hit it. I have no desire to have a rollcage in my DD. LOL

i dont think they really care. the inspection is pretty easy, they just kinda make sure everything is sound on the car. a friend of mine ran a 9.5 in his twin turbo and they kicked him off, but thats the only i know of. me and my friends only Test and tune, if we are involved in any kind of event i think they would check everything.
