Nice work warr, you deserve it with all the time and effort you've put into it.

If that is really at 6000ft and is doesn't have declining slope you should have an EASY low 11 second car at sea level. That is retardedly fast at 6000ft

 

congrats warr

 

Hah, yeah, for now I should be able to shave a few tenths if either 1) I go on a day when there are hotrods so that the track is sticky, or 2) I get DRs and just go ape sh**. I know it would then be capable of even better times at sea level, but I'm not sure at which point the gearing would become an issue. I was SCREAMING at the top of 8th on these passes, and by screaming, I mean that my turbo was gasping for breath way way way out of its efficiency, but I felt it was best to not shift to 5th, since I wasn't running out of steam until close to the line. Even so, one of the things I'd get back at sea level is power up top, because the powerband would shift to the right.

Addressing your caveats, I have plenty of previous runs on this same track from the past 2+ years, so consider this info for legitimacy. Before I moved here, I ran 12.000 @ 113.xx at sea level on stage 1 mods, ~24psi, and a base flash with a mix of 110/93oct. I then added p/p manifold, p/p hotside, ss o2, forge wga, cams, and alky with a custom flash (was a base flash previously). All those mods up here at this same track netted me a 12.30 @ 109.5, which was DAMN good in the eyes of people up here. Of course, I thought it stunk considering I beat that with a cat-back/mbc/safc within 6 months of getting my 05 MR. Since then, I added 68whp and about the same wtq and went up to 11.84 @ 118. The power gain plus a 6spd->5spd swap, and about 100lbs less all adds up to these numbers making sense. I also just dyno'd within 4whp of a low-boost/stock-motored 35R STi who runs 11.9-12.0 with 116-117mph traps while weighing 150lbs more, so it all seems to make sense.

Elevation on the sign on the highway right outside the track says 5824' or so with the track being another 50' higher at least, and then the density altitude is sometimes as high as 9000', but it wasn't on this nice day.
