RE: GOING RACING TONIGHT STANTON MICHIGAN
My winter mod list this last year....
Adjustable fuel pressure rgualtor
70mm TB
Custom EGR delete spacer
MAF convertion(with 70mm MAF) I think that is what made it slower
Ported upper and lower intakes(nothing crazy...well, not too crazy anyways)
Ground the welds in the headers off
BBK off road X pipe(went from an H pipe)
Weight jacker control arms
Torque box reinfocements
MT ET Streets 255/60/15
and a bunch of other misc things that add up to around 350 bones
Previos mods:
3.73 gears
Ported and decked E7's
1.7 RR
electric fan
cold air
aluminum drive shaft
eleminated smog
under drives
MSD coil
FRPP wires
Shorty equal headers
H pipe(swapped for the X)
flowmaster cat back
subframes
boxed control arms
that is about it for power modsI guess......
I think I need to do a bit more tuning and I will give it another go...I want 13.5 or better. I was spinning the tires pretty bad leaving at 4000(Ihave amaunal)..had to lift a little couple of times. I was running 15psi in the tires and heating them a little. I am happy to say I didn't have any wheel hop though, but I have a lotroom to improve.

I didn't have anyone with me to watch, that would have helped. I don't think I was getting them hot enough, but i didn't have the nerve to do a burn out in second gear yet.
Maybe I need to put a stock lower intake back on to find out if I overported it....I don't know. Or just buy a blower and be done with it

RE: GOING RACING TONIGHT STANTON MICHIGAN
Yep, I did the same thing when I first got my DR's.. Took about 5-10 passes before I found the right about of time to warm them up. but boy once you get them warm enough, you'll know. When I hooked really well the first time I was looking at the sky! It was a rush! Heat them up better next time and 13.5's should be easy to surpass.
The MAF conversion should not have made you slower, maybe the 70mm MAF is too big for a fairly stock motor.
