my 520rwhp IRS cobra clocked a 11.1@122mph so it definitely is possible to get great times off of the IRS. I do have an IRS brace and DRs.

OP - Check out lethal Performance for parts. They have a huge selection and good prices. Almost everything I buy comes from them.

Ill have to agree with venom, by no means is it impossible to launch an IRS the problem lies when you start making serious power combined with a slick then reliable is sacrificed and the chances of breaking are high.
