Those times are definatly a bit on the slow side, I would imagine you should be able to get low 13s high 12s which some better 60 foots and shifts.

Wait, did I read you missed 2nd? Maybe there needs to be a driver mod...forget the gears LOL jk

Why did you have the 2 step at 3K before you went to the track with that setup? Seems like you should have left it off and test out the setup to find a good launching rpm, then have it programmed in after.

Either have it tuned out for now, or up the rpm, or gears maybe would be my guesses.

Most importantly 01MG, did you have fun??! It's depressing seeing friends on here being able to go to the track during the winter...my car isn't even on insurance, and there is 4feet of snow on the ground.

My advice is 3.73s, get rid of the 2step, and drive the eva lovin' shlt out of it!!!!!!!

Get some gears the number is up to you not gonna start another frigin gear war. And launch at higher rpms. Just dont use the 2 step for now. See what rpm works for you and than i would set the 2 step from there.

I had the two step programmed when I still had stock tires and wheels. I actually forgot it was programmed till I was at the track and it was to late lol. I wouldn't say I missed second, I just was being greedy with how far I pushed the clutch that one time . I shifted at 6200 almost every time. I need a STS for sure. Banging gears with the stocker is about like rowing a boat. Takes about as long too lol.

I have to admit though, your car in that signature of yours looks absolutely freaking sexy as hell.

I would definitely get gears.. help you get into your powerband quicker...

Raise you rev limiter.. I leave at ~4k with mickey drag radials. Little spin is better than bogging. You still moving when you spin a little..

Get to sea level..... lol
