On the 9.1 pass i dint use no 2step i just slip the clutch rev to about where i see 8k rpm and LET GOO! but when i compete, 2step is set 7k rpm witht the MSD digital1 15psi in a second consistent 1.4xx 60fts ussually also get .0xx R/Ts
Before the 9.1 pass i ran the first pass of the day a 9.20 pass and it was with 2step, but spun a little so got a 1.505 60ft, let me try and see if i can get that video somewhere!

Congrats on the time man! Car is deff movin!! In my opinion you should go with a small brake kit & a 15" rim! It'll make a huge difrence! &. I'm more than positve you'll crack Into the 8's just with that change. If you don't want to do the small brake kit. Then I'd look into atleast the fd wheels, it's a smaller & lighter wheel. & you can still use the stock brakes. But the small brake kit will make a big difrence man. Best of luck on what ever you decide to do.
