Yeah, like they said ^^^ your trap speeds indicate that you are capable of even better times. With a great launch, you can easily knock .2 seconds off your 60' and 1/8th, I ran a 8.1 @ 85 way-back-when... and last year I also ran a 12.81 @ 107, which is basically 2mph slower than you are running, therefore, knocking your 60' time down is the key, and will surely put you into the mid 12s. You picked up 24mph in the final 1/8th, which is really good too, and basically says (what you already know) that improving the launch is the key, since the power's there...

Out of curiosity: how well is the boost control flash holding? Is it pretty steady, or does it still taper a lot? And how much boost are you running?

the boost control flash holds great. when i replaced the stock bov w/ the jdm mr bov it holds even better. it will spike to 24psi and hold at 21-20 now with the new bov. i've also gone over the whole car and have checked for boost leaks and tightened every clamp and hose u can think of. before with the stock bov it would hit 21-20 and taper to 18-19psi. car runs solid now and when i'm done at the track tonight i'll post my new times around 9:30-10:00.

ok, first, get yourself a good light source under the dash. then, look right behind the fuse panel and follow the clutch up to right behind the fuse panel. push on the clutch and look for a switch(little plastic rod) disengage as the push down on the clutch with your hand. keep an eye and your light on it when your pushing down. when u see it, just reach up and pull the plug! its that easy! the hard part is lying upside down under the dash to look up under there.
