I am, but I'm also an 05, so I have an advantage in hp, at least in stock form.

You might need a retune, but I don't know unless go dyno it again. You should be 20-40whp higher than your previous dyno...if for some reason, you're not, then maybe something is wrong.

You should really blow me away with cams installed...have you talked Al, and did you get reflashed after the cams?

Good idea.

One variable is still unanswered, though. Your previous 9.2@74 was awfully slow. Whatever caused this to happen is likely causing your current problem. As an example, I ran a 9.0@81mph in stock form after a 2.44 60' and a missed 2-3 shift. Those mistakes caused a bad 1/8-mile time, but the mph was still there...

yeah you definitely need a retune. I was on stock clutch when i ran 90 mph in the 1/8th but that last pass killed the clutch and i am now running an ACT street disc.

not yet man... let me know when you're going to the track. I was thinking about maybe going to Old Dominion (8th mile) in manassas next week. I think they have open runs on Wed. nights. I'm anxious to see what I can do now that I'm finally all tuned up

Also guys, from someone who drags in Al as well, it is HUMID AS CRAP down here w/ a lot of heat. Since this isa recent run I bet this is the cause of deviation in comparison to most everyone elses runs.

Not so much in Huntsville, though, and definitely not enough to cause that much difference. Mobile is on the bays, it's much more humid and usually much hotter.

Huntsville actually gets snow, but I'm sure it still gets ***** hot in the summer.
