Slow night at track on friday

Well didnt do as good as I was hoping to do on friday. My best of 5 runs as a
13.44 @ 102, I think. I didnt keep my time slips. I had a 1.8 60' on that run Im sure. When we went up in march I accomplished a 12.9 @ 108.

In march I only had intake and full exhaust. Now I have a flash, boost controller, and intercooler piping also. Could the weather affect times that much? I had some pretty good launches (now with launch limiter) I just dont know what the deal is. I will try to see if I can dig up the timeslips.

I wouldn't think it's so much the weather as maybe something else. You say you added IC piping, so I would look over it for leaks.

the two times differ alot. maybe when you installed some thing you forgot to hook some vacum lines up. you should check your engine bay one more time. You should faster not slower with a flash.
