On 9psi, bfg drag radials, and 93 octane I rana best time of 13.4 @100 with a 1.900 60ft. My 8th was a 8.61@81The car hooked great and came out of the hole like a champ, but I got some stuttering when i shifted to 4th. It hadnt done it before, and hadnt done it since. Sucks. For my boost level, im happy with the time, but i feel it may have been better had the car not sputtered in 4th. The MPH sucks, but I dont relaly have enough boost for too much higer of a trap speed.

Oh well, I had fun and am overall happy with the cars performance at the track. Ill get Klattr1 to post up a vid in the multimedia section when I get it to him.

You will get better, at least I hope so. At .6 bar ~8.7psi I ran a 13.3 @ 110 three times in a row with 2.2 60'. But decent times none the less. Good job man and keep getting better.

^^^ Yeah, but a KA-T at 9psi and 110 traps are NOT typical...unless your car is REALLY light.

At ~8psi I did mid-13s at 104mph with slower 60' times (S14, weighs ~2800lbs plus me at 225lbs)...that's more typical from the track times I've seen.

Just FYI...

Why is no one mentioning what turbo they're using? That's just as important as stating what boost level you're at!

structure, you mean like 25-30 psi like i'm shooting for right off the get-go, just estimating and guess where do you think i'll be at in 1/4th time with a good reaction time and good tire hook up.

I ran a 245/40/18--but the size you want is much better for the track. I would have much rather had a 16 inch wheel with those tires. They are great!
