That's my buddy Daniel. The skyblue Speed 3 with the plasti dipped black rear bumper? Yea he's not too happy about his tune at all. He should be putting down about 350 hp with all of his mods. He was hoping for 12's if not 11's with good driving and good track prep along with a functional tune. But he needs race gas to probably come close to touch 11's. It is a stout car though, I raced him back when my car was quicker than what it is now for some reason, and I beat him. It was a highway roll 50-100ish. But ever since I got this DSP tuner, my car is not as quick as it was before. But I'll get it straightened out with some race gas or meth.
Gotcha, I have family closer to S.O.B near Lake View, SC.
I liked the MS3 a lot. It was an 08. I would love to have another to DD, mod a little, etc...but for drag racing I wasn't a fan of it. The gearing was way too short, too much torque steer, and terrible wheel hop. The turbo dropping off at 5500 was an awful combo with that short gearing. Too much like the Peterbuilt I drive, lots of torque but no legs, lol.
From a 3rd gear roll it moved out though. So yea, loved the car, just not a good choice for the 1/4 imho.

Anyways, sorry to get OT.

I figured his car wasn't running right because of his inconsistent times. I seen him run 13.5 followed by a 13.8, pretty sure it was tune/traction related. I used to run boosted cars as well, and it can be frustrating trying to pin down the problem..
I had a stage 2 SRT-4 before my supercharged 08 Mustang, and it was plenty quick on the highway, though I never hit anything lower than 13.8@105mph (2.4 60 fts.!) . I am sure that would beat the 2012 RT AWD I had, especially from a roll

And mzdaspeed, he is damn near fully bolted if not fully bolted. No e85 here in Alaska at all, we only have the highest grade of 90oct. But he is talking bout getting a race gas tune and going from there. Me personally am going to be running Meth here soon, racegas seems like it would get expensive realllllll quick.

I'm sad to see you sold it haha. Yep, I cut a best 60ft of 2.5 haha. But I just bought a set of slicks so I'll see what I can run next time with those.
