Hey guys- I am running at the track tomarrow, and just had a few questions. First of all, what psi should I run in my tires to run the best time? Also, I have Tokico adj shocks, what should I set them at for the best times? Thanx, and be sure to share any other tips that you guys can think of! I will post back and let you guys know my times!
have your rear tires at 35 psi (or higher if they can go higher), fronts at about 23 or so. See what pressure works best for your tires when launching (it would be different for different tires, you could go from 18 psi to 28 psi, or who knows what, but 23 should be low enough to get some more traction on pretty much any tire)
set your rear shocks as stiff as possible, your front shocks as soft as possible
I think you did a better job of launching than i did.
You will very likely get into the 15's if you can keep up your driving style and get the UDP.
I ran a 14.2@101mph tonight - never got my 60' times below 2.4 seconds. So you're doing good! Keep at it!

Thanks! as for mods i have- Engine- Cold Air Intake, GS-T exhaust, NGK BKR5E-11 Suspension- Matrix coilovers, tokico adjustable shocks, front and rear strut bar, ICW racing wheels wrapped with hankook 205/40/17's
good job! I think if you've got a set of stock 14 inch RS alloys hanging around (or a set you can borrow) and run those, you'll be in 15's already. The UD pulley should help get you there.
Keep up the good work. The suspension does help with the launch, but nothing beats practice
I want to hear how ya do
