QUEST FOR 12'S

RE: QUEST FOR 12'S
Shift around 6500 RPM (if your tune is programmed to let you raise it up that high.) Launch is the key, but getting the most power out of ever gear is second. 12s is really easy for this car, and depending on the location you should be alright. Humidity and temps do hurt, because of heat soak. Your list of mods, I see no reason why you can't be hitting low 12s. I'd be expecting atleast 12.3-5 out of those mods, if not better. Tires alone (and since you are adding skinnies in the front it's going to even be better.) should drop you close to .5 a second.

You should easily be in the 12s. My best time is 13.104 with only a CAI and tune on the stock tires at Orlando Speedworld. As said before, a CAI, tune and DRs should give you consistent 12s.

My best time to date is 13.05. I have a pretty, new aluminum DS sitting in my house waiting for the loop to be delivered. I'll probably install it the day after t-giving. If the track is open that weekend, I might give her a go for 12's.

it should be. i'm not the best driver on earth and i managed a 13 flat, and if i practiced i know i could muster 12's.
so if i added a couple minor things, like UDP's and an offroad midpipe, i think it'd be fair to say i could reach the 12.6x range.

I thought I remember reading that Brenspeed managed to hit 12's with just an intake, tune, and drag radials. Of coarse on top of that the removed the spare/jack, and adjusted the tire pressure.

Let's not get crazy here. It becomes increasingly harder to lower your ET the faster you go. Don't forget that brenspeed dyno tuned that car and i'm sure they were powershifting.
