I'm having issues with front wheel hop coming off the line, but I also didn't adjust the tire pressure this time either. Every run I wheel hop and I have to get back into the clutch a little or just pray and keep going while adjusting the gas. Sooner or later I'm going to snap and axle.

When I ran the 12.069 my tire pressure was at 28psi.

To answer the question about mph, I hit a 12.1 @ 117.80 while on C16 and stock injectors.

That's my normal method and is how I got my 1.66, but it just wasn't working on Sunday. With the feather/slip method, I got 1.76 and 1.78 (ugh), then with a more aggressive hard-hitting launch, I just spun all the way through first en route to a 1.85 and 1.92. I really just needed more runs...

what is your target boost on 104 oct? are you setting for a spike or just hitting a psi level, and what psi are running? I too and running a flash with a afc piggy back but have only had one track day to try and dial it in.

I shoot for a steady 24psi in 4th. 1st through 3rd come so quickly that I don't have time to even look, so I just worry about 4th. Since I powershift the 3-4 and am always above 5600rpm, there is no spike. It just hits the boost level I want and sticks, then it starts to slowly taper as I approach the higher rpms. Since I hold 4th all the way to 7800, my boost has tapered significantly by then, but that's ok.

id think that u would be better off with the slipping of the clutch method better, and since u got that new act it should be good for a while. ive tried both types that u mention and the hard hitting launch is always so abusive and if u do it to fast u tend to bog more. atleast if u slip it too much ur rpms stay high, and ur clutch should still hold since its aftermarket. atleast id hope!
