First run in 06, what do you think?

So today was my first day at the track after my Turbotrix tune over the winter.
I have AEM EMS, custom intake, 272's, Buscher TBE, and MBC @ 21. I ran on pump gas, 94.

R/T.........0.320
60 ........ 1.736
1/4........ 12.339
MPH...... 108.51

To me this seems a little low for my mods, especially the trap speed. I hit 108 before the tune and mods when i ran a 12.8......let me know if this seems right to you.

108 doesn't match the 347 whp but the time is sick! Maybe your car was pulling timing on the top.

First of all, you drove the snot out of it. Great driving.

108.5 is good for pump gas. I've done 111.9 on 92 octane, but with a couple of more mods than you at 22psi...

A 12.3@108 sounds ok but the 108 does seem low for a cammed car.

it's bcuz you're using AEM (almost engine mgmt...) . your car was running faster on the stock ecu it seems. a guy in AZ (antonio010) ran 12.31 @113.7 with a full tank of gas on the stock ecu. he's gonna run again 2nite @ speedworld so he should break 11's. u might wanna rethink the mods u have. IMO u should ditch the AEM...

oh i forgot, he ran a 12.5 @110 with a 1/2 tank of 91 octane in the car...

Seems like you missed a gear or you car is falling on its face after the 1/8th..Actually the 1/8 trap is low as well. Either you shift very slow or your car is WAY down on power..

You seem to not know very much about tuning judging from that comment

considering that he doesn't have that much on his car, his TQ should still be higher than his HP. maybe his "tuner" needs to play with the cam gears & the booboo aem some more... just a thought

just fo comparaison here s my time i got with my 05 EVO 8 with TBE, mbc @ 22psi, k&n drop in and Jestr tuning Reflash on 93 octane:

60' 1.735
330 5.221
1/8 8.087@84.67MPH
1000 10.566
1/4 12.638@109.10

so u see your car should have a higher trap speed than mine, it looks like u have good power in the mid range but u dont have that much power in the top RPM's

BTW what RPM do u shift at?
