12.3 @ 112mph

Best pass so far...Unfortunately a nail in my tire ended my night after my 3rd pass....Sun was still up, so the temps hadn't dropped enough to help...Had about 1/4 gas in tank...Only weight reduction was spare tire out...Stock yokahamas @ normal psi...2 step @ 5500 rpm

60ft- 1.83
330- 5.17
1/8th- 7.96
1/4- 12.31 @ 112.9 mph

any suggestions to lower my times???

you could get your 60ft down 2 tenths. Practice launcing.

Get the 60ft down and it's likely you'll hit 11's

raise your 2 step 6k or a little higher and drop your 60' down to mid-low 1.6 and you should def see an 11sec time slip.

set the 2-step at 62 and lower the tire pressure to 23psi.

and as you stated, its also the driver mod. Depend on how well you shift and what rpms you hold it out to will greatly effect the time.

Are you shifting too early? My friend who did like 310 on that dyno trapped 114-115 with his 05 evo 8 turbo.

Either way, I would expect your trap to be a little higher then it was. Are you shifting at like 6k?

More seat time should help with your driving technique however might be something else, who knows.

Find your boost leaks. The mph tells the tale.
