OK, I went to the drag strip this past weekend and had a few runs. Here is basically what I had. I had the launch control set at 5300rpms. Seemed to hook pretty good, My best 60ft was like 1.78. That run was a 13.042 at 102.?? mph. I was very disappointed. On the street using a gtech it showed that I should have been like around 110pmh. Of course this is in the evening. It was about 80 degrees and the sun was beating down. I consistently ran 13.4's like a machine after that. I was trying to break into the 12s and after each run it seemed to be falling away. I gave up. The wierd thing is the track put VHT doen the entire strip. ??????? It was like driving through bubble gum. After I left the track, the car seemed faster. Maybe it was the constant airflow cooling things back down or maybe becasue it wasnt so sticky after that. Anyway, as you can see what mods I have, I was curious to get other peoples opinions about these times.

My buddy, who has a turbo M3 ran pretty much 11.6s and 11.8s. Of course he has like 430WHP.

Also, I got my wife's permission to send my car out to a reputable tuner. And havent decided what tuner to send it to for a turbo upgrade and tune. I am trying to post a poll with some options but of course if there are others that I am missing that would be recommended, I would be interested.
is funny that u can even run a low 13's .... when u do low 12's like me let me know and then I go with u to the track BUDDY !!!

Funny you had to look that up... How old is that???? 2 huge problems here. That tune was done at the time my fuel pump went bad and had to replace it more than likely causing fuel issues and not to mention using high impendence injectors on a low impedence car....

I woulnt consider a 12.4XX necessarily low either.

BTW- I did run a 13.040 which is a low 13 unlike a 13.4 which is more like a mid 13 to your low 12.4
