My quest for 11's

I am SOOO CLOSE...my mods now are TBE, intake, boost controller, and Tune by 4ws. I went to the track tonight to try and get my goal, and came up barely short. I need to take out some air in my tires next time, and somehow get around the water box. I am very happy with the times but I really wanted to do a tad better. What do you guys think?

Times from tonight are:

12.450 @ 109.83 1.753 60ft. MISSED 4th (was so pissed that was the run)
12.137 @ 114.82 1.825 60ft. (tried something knew )
12.066 @ 114.35 1.737 60ft.
12.206 @ 114.13 1.844 60ft. (couldnt avoid water box)
12.215 @ 113.76 1.826 60ft. (couldnt avoid water box)
12.237 @ 114.43 1.816 60ft. (couldnt avoid water box)

My last three runs I could NOT avvoid the water box because of how it was set up, and was on too much tire pressure. So i spun like a ****. But i will be out soon again to get my goal!!

Thanks guys let me know what you think, and vids will be up soon

yup. I need to let tire pressure out. And somehow get around that water box. Going to have to try a few different approaches.

no cams. Just intake exhaust and boost controller holding near 23 psi, maybe a tad less.

I would say those times are not that bad for your mods. Good Job, a little more work and you should be there.
