I agree. Just go to the track and report back to us with your timeslips. Few drivers do spectacular the first few passes, so don't be too disappointed if you get a 2.0 60' or a poor ET.

If you've never been to the track before, I wouldn't expect "best case scenario". One thing about drag racing is that the driving REALLY matters. The launch, the shifting, everything. Good luck, but I wouldn't set your expectations too high. Hopefully you get a lot of passes, and you'll see your time quickly improve. If you're in the 12s, you should be happy. You basically have no mods.

i just find that hard to believe at 21 PSI with only a boost controller for a mod you ran 12.5 at 108. Then again you are in PR and for some reason cars in that area seem to run stupid times with no mods. Maybe you guys have the best track prepped tracks in the world.... i dont know. I know with my car the best i cut was a 12.8 at 105 to 108 or something like that with an MBC, drop in and TBE on pump at 23 psi with a 1.70 60ft. The numbers just dont seem to work out in my head. Hell, it takes a good 115 to 116 to get into the high 11's. That normally takes a lot more mods then an MBC and a turbo back.

That's why i want to see the boost graph...someday i will go back to the dyno to get one...i guess from 21 to 23 but i don't really know...as a fact, a IX MR ran 11.8 with only intake ,race fuel and EBC...at ?? psi...down here...

Bench racing is dumb. Go to the track and find out. There's no way we could predict or know how poorly you're going to drive, not to mention the fact that running 25psi on 92oct is pretty ridiculous.

as i was saying, for some reason the cars in PR seem to make crazy fast times with nothing.... but then later their always seems to be some mod that wasnt listed that was pertinent like oh lets say, i ran an 11.8 at 116 with just an MBC.... 10 posts later you see that he is using his stock exhaust system and running a 3065 now with nitrous and his time actually sucked lol

obviously an extreme example...

why dont you take your car to the predator folks and have them look at it and dyno it.
