Well, I figure I started the same thread for Slo-Pny day, why not.

What have you done and what will it run?

On my end, I believe I called 13.6, but only got to 13.8.

This time around, I think I'll call 12.99. That way I can get to the 13.2-13.4 range I really expect.

Since Slo-Pny day, I have done the following in preparation for V-Day:

Nitto NT555R Drag radials, 225/50-16 (oooh they hook nicely!)

Coilovers to drop the front end

Solid motor mounts

Had a single-person porting party, porting the manifold, o2 housing, and turbine housing. I highly recommend this to anyone.

Installed TMO Stage 3 ECU

The interior will be gutted

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, whereas last time I only got up to 15 psi and pump gas, I will be heading straight for the 112 and 22-24 psi. If the clutch holds up, I believe I should hit my target time easily, But as I stated before, the strip can be cruel.

Good stuff James. I like to see how some of the local DSM owners are comming together to support your effort. And good luck on making some new records...we need something fresh to compare too. biggthumpup.gif

BTW - Although I wish my best time was a 12.5 it was actually a 12.67. I had a Fidanza flywheel and ACT 2600 clutch, but full AWD weight as well.
