I took my car to Gateway Friday night. Its a 281CID 70mm single turboed manual trans, full weight car on MT ET Street Radial (265/40 18s). I ran it on 93 octane. I ran 15PSI boost, 13 degrees timing and 10.9 AFR.
My best run was launching with 2 step at 3400rpm. I still bogged with 60ft at 2.02 this was an 11.66 at 127.35mph.
I tried increasing my launch rpm, but any more and i was really building boost, so it just spun badly.
Honestly I was hoping to run 1.60s on 60ft and get into the 10's. As you can tell from my trap speed, I have plenty of power to do that.
I have ran 1.92 60ft without a 2 step, and was really hoping that my new WOT box/2step would seriously decrease my 60ft times.
I said all of that for this....Am I not going to be able to go quicker with these tires? If not, what do you guys recommend? ET Street (Bias)?
Any tips would be helpful.
