Good luck bro!
Thanks.. Always been interested in RA's. Just took sometime off but i dont think anyone NA has come close to my 12.7 time. So i have to set the bar high right? Have to make the turbo guys work harder to beat me now.

dude, i'm not even into the 14's yet...lol, don't raise the bar yet...waiting on transmission parts, hackish to tweak my tune a bit, bigger turbo and slicks...the turbo and slicks i have, the latter i'm still waiting on...got a prosport MBC too, hoping i can up a pound or 2 by setting it to zero...

I had alot of wheel spin issues too till i learn how to launch it. With the slicks i have i never had an issue on launch. Once my car is going again i will be shacking it down at Sacramento raceway and take vids.

nice...i think it was you that told me to try launching in 2nd, but i have launch control, so in second gear i get lots of traction, but brutal turbo lag, lol...once hackish finishes UVtune, then i can play with different rev limits in both 1st and second...my launch control at 3500 worked very well when i was N/A, the LSD took care of it, and wheel spin was minimal...now it's very hard to find a balance between lag and wheel spin with "right foot tuning" alone, but i really didn't get as much track time this year as i would have liked with my work schedule...
