Thats good mph for the time. Last time I was at the track, I ran 13.12 at 107mph with 2.14 60'. I think you would really benifit with some stickys. You had a not so good 60' get some tires and 12s is very possible.

why are u racing a car with no tune? that would have sucked if it went lean up top.

also you can get the et streets in a 255/50 R16

i would start looking into some upper and lowers. i had a lakewood traction action lift bars and bbk uppers. i would suggest getting some steeda adjustable uppers so u can adjust the pinion angle. just trying to help u learn from my mistakes.

i doubt he'll go lean with a "mild" set-up and 30's...i was cutting 12.5-12.8's with 107mph...

suspension...good springs/upper/lowers/struts/shocks,and a decent sticky tire will net every bit of a 12 sec pass

As far as a tune goes. Do you guys think a mail order chip would be ok since the trick flow kit is pretty common?

I have the 30's because i got a great deal on them and the mass air meter. Im not really sure where to sset the fuel pressure with them. I know i would be better with 24's. What fuel pressure and timing you recommend?

no chip yet..with your set-up...16* timing and 36-38 psi for the 30's....i'm running 43 psi on my 24's and go waaay lean when i hit 6500.

that is why i bought a pms...although someone will surely chime in megasquirt is cheaper than a mail order chip

i say get upper/lower control arms and some M/T et's. What gears do you have? Your 60 foot isnt the greatest.

Bet not. Just because the injectors are 30lph doesn't mean that they will flow 30 all the time. You (stangman) have an AFPR, I assume? (edit: read the mod list, you do..) And 40 is fine, a bit low even (with the vac. line plugged and unhooked). Mine is set at 43 unhooked, runs about 38 at idle connected.

Nice trap regardless, what elevation are you at?
