Default Track Times After Hellion Turbo Kit!!!

went out for the first time with the new turbo setup and got a new best. The old best with the vortech setup was 11.96@115 leaving at 5500rpm. Here are the new times from tonight
-12.4@114 on 7psi just driving off the line at 2800rpm (1.99 60')
-11.97@115 on 7.5psi launching at 4200rpm with about 2psi (1.75 60')
-11.90@115 on 7.5psi launching at 4200rpm with about 3psi (1.69 60')
-11.84@115 on 7.5psi launching at 4200rpm with about 5psi (1.65 60')

I had to load it up after the last pass which was a 12.6 because a vacuum leak decided to appear while in the water box. A/F was pegged rich at WOT and had to get out of it.

Still having some 2-3psi boost spike issues while shifting so im afraid to turn up the boost to run a solid 9psi down the track. Once i get all that figured out i think the car has some mid 11's in it for sure.

For racing only go auto. For a street car that goes to the track I'd go manual. But awesome runs regardless.

Dont do it, you'll regret it. I regret switching to one, nowhere near as fun, ****ty mileage. The drop in fun was the worst though.
