So So Track Times....

Well I finally got out to the track for the first time in a long time. I have got alot of new parts since the last time I ran. When I had just an intake, tb/plenum, pullies, catback and nitto d/rs, I got a 13.9. Since then I got 4:10's, mid pipe, nx 100 shot and some bfg d/rs. I was hoping for a 12.7 today. I only got to run twice and my first run was the best...

RT .47
60ft 2.05
330ft 5.71
1/8et 8.61
1/8mph 84.5
1000'et 11.09
1000'mph 98.48
1/4et 13.11
1/4mph 108 (high trap for 13.1 correct?)

Considering I haven't been at the track in so long, I was somewhat pleased with the car. It was chilly and I dont have a bottle warmer installed yet so my pressure was low at around 800psi, so that right there would be atleast a tenth or two. BFG d/rs work like a gem fellas. I was dumping jus shy of 4k and I would bog!! I didn't spray from the hole, but I'm defanitely going to start spraying on launch. I hope to catch the track one more time with my bottle heater and I hope to hit a 12.7, sound about right??
 
Get the 60ft's down and it'll run a 13.5 easy. You really should get it tuned though.. i know a certain someone with an 04 GT with similar mods that went 12.3
 
With, BFG's, 12's are only a good 60' away. What kind of air pressure? 16-18lbs, smoky burnout, and 4.10/nitrous should make for a 1.8 at least probably better.
 
Any other thoughts or any helpful hints? Next time I'm gonna have the bottle heater installed and I'm gonna spray off the line, with that and quicker shifting do you think mid 12's are possible?

With a good hook, maybe
 
Exactly, 1badair...I really think the bottle pressure was killing me. I was even being generous at 800psi, probably dipped around 700 after the run. I just need some more practic and the right pressure and I'd say a 12.7 is defanitely possible. I need my bottle heater installed, any of you guys know of anyone that could install a bunch of accesories for a nitrous kit for cheap?? Purge, bottle heater, fuel pressure safety switch, blow down tube, and a window switch...
