im missing freak show too, thank god the weather is ****! lol just playin
ran consistant 13.6-13.7 last night at the track. Its like a wall i cant get past. Drove an hour to track, lined up right through the gate, ran 13.6. ran again, 13.7. break, let it cool down, ran 13.6, then 13.7. Waited again, got 1 last run in b4 the night ended, 13.6. I went to 26lbs of air pressure in my tires. all passes were trapped between 105-108. did not NLS 1-2 but did 2-4. Biggest problem i see is my 21lb of boost in 1st gear. really makes launching tough.
Lined up and won again: Cobalt SS/SC, Caliber SRT4, TT Supra
Lost against: Evo 9 (by .1 second, i ran 13.7 to his 13.6. sooo close, i was reeling him in at the end)

take your tire pressure to like 23-24lbs. Have them put some T/M back in for first gear, and ramped in 2nd to get some traction.But your trap is VERY low!

NSI said they would put my car back on the dyno and date log it as well as adjust my tune for me. said it would cost me $140 and they would check everything and do whatever needed to be done. eventually ill do that it looks like.
oh and! B4 the track, i took my spare tire out, took my little 12" sony explode sub out the back, took everything out my glove box and **** lol. weight reduction

My best track run... 12.95 at 115.7 on the stock Conti's @ 25psi.
but I have a special track map, with lots of T/M so I can get traction. And I only used NLS for the 2-3 shift since I didn't have to shift out of 3rd with a 7400 rpm redline!
Last dyno run was 353 and 389

that makes me feel better. i thought people were breaking into 12's on normal DD maps. Makes me feel better to know that to break 12's you got a special map made thats highly modified and tweaked to allow for the best traction in each gear as well as raised the redline so you dont have to shift out of 3rd. With my setup the way it is now, i can see why i cant get past 13.6. I imagine with a few adjustments for traction i can see 13.3 and with more power 12.9.
and according to those dyno numbers your numbers are alot higher than mine. how come people can boost 25psi when i read our wastegate can only handle 22psi. i also read you can put some mig wire in it or something. basically what im wondering is how to up the boost more
