samm with shaggy what is a vortech chip. and you have lowering springs with drag struts. what tires you running. what was your speed. speed = power, ET = tuning of car[suspension,tracion,]

thats what it says on the chip thats on the computer. it was put in way before i got the car. im running bfgoodrich comp T/A drag radials and i have no line lock yet. the struts arent drag struts they are the street gas-a-just from kyb. i still need upper and lower control arms, remove the quad shocks, and some torque boxes. i have like 1.9 60 foot times. i cant get the tires hot enough and im running 18 pis in the rear and 35 in the front. i do a 2nd gear burn out and the rearend wants to hit the wall next to me even with the drag radials. even though i dont need to ice the intake because of the phenolic heat spacer i do any ways. it smells rich but the tps is at .99 well i get 17 miles per gallon on the street, so that should tell you how i drive on the street but at the track its a different story it seems like it doesnt wanna grrip with those tires. it doesnt launch like its should. i mean it might have enough powr to pull the front end with some 90/10's but i dont have the money. i just graduated high school in june. and im going to wyotech in october so money is tight. i consistantly run 12.75's at around 107. the track temp when i ran it was like 52 dedgrees.
