Paul is a good tuner too!

Went to Etown NHRA import event today and ran a 12.0 at 112.8mph, first time ever drag racing my Evo! Thanks Mark and Paul did an awesome job in tuning!! And all the TT crew...especially Mike answering my phone calls .

BTW, I dynoed 339hp and 321 torque on their dyno, so I think their dyno reads a little low .

actually the trap speed sounds right for the power you're making, you must've nailed the launch to get that ET, did you put in race gas?

I did two runs, both with high 1.6 60'. Mark set the two step at 6k rpm, its pretty idiot proof, I hold the gas all the way down, let the clutch out just alittle bit and a quick smooth slip and it took off clean without any drama. I'm running 93 Amoco, $3.29 a gallon....ouch. I was just kidding with their dyno

I can't see and no one is tell me I'm spitting fire so I think not. yeah there is some poping when bouncing off the 2step, but mines are just lolipops when compare to those monster rotory drag cars. And for once, I think my greddy Ti exhaust is dead quiet!

Jeff, yeah I took the cams out because the car is mainly for autoxing as I stated before, I prefer smoothness than raw power. The "before" dyno # I post was with Cams which made 361 hp and the "after" dyno #s is after I took the cams out which is 339hp. Sorry about the confusion. With the Cams, the car will definitely running 11s with pump!

Damn kev,
you kick *** in drag too. Its cool to see an auto x guy go to the strip and run some good numbers. I definitely saw you there, but couldn't get a chance to see how you were doing. Congrats on the awsome pass man! I'm sure we'll see you soon for those 272's. Keep up the good driving homie.

-Paul
