the launch could have been better. car was still bogging down some or i was spinning the slicks. she was doing it all night off the line. this is at 21lbs of boost. no real tuning.. everything set the same as my last dyno run which is in my sig.
Reaction: .689 -.500 on this track is perfect 60ft: 2.019 594ft: 8.417 1/8et: 8.943 1/8mph: 85.53
what do you guys think? next time i go back i will be pushing 27lbs on race gas and have it tuned hopefully.. i should be over 400whp at that point.
whats the mathematical calculation for 1/4 times? i know its not exact for our cars, but it might give me a rough estimate.

Your 60ft time needs work. 2.0 times can be done with a good set of drag radials. Don't get me wrong it's a decent 60ft but with slicks you should be seeing 1.8s or better. Your 1/8th mile time needs work as well but that will most likely come with tuning and more boost. I don't know of any actual calculations but that 1/8th mile time is more consistant with a mid to high 13 second pass. You'll need to be in the mid to low 8s before you'll see 12s.

Take it for what you will, but statistics don't lie. Look at dsmtimes in the FWD section if you don't believe me.

No problem, I'm sorry I did not say what you wanted to hear.
wow you guys squabble like girls constantly with no end. your 60 foot isn't that great for slicks. launch better and your eight mile should drop by quite a bit... when my buddy got his launch downpat he went from running low 14s to low 13s. If you mess up the first 60 feet in a turbo car, your screwed through second gear because odds are you won't spool enough in first to carry the boost through the shift, but you probably already knew that, right?
