This is the second time I took the car to the track since the rebuild, The first time I took it to the track it ran 14.3 with open diff and crap tires. Now it has a welded diff and a little better tire but not a drag tire.

Specs92 base model coupeSr20detHKS step 2 cams 264Enjukuracing t3/t4 50 trim 63a/rDenso 555cc injectorsEmance Rom tuneSuspension: Tokio Blues with sportline springsTires. Kumho Esta 225/50/15

best pass was 12.48 But I cant find the time slip for that so I can only post my second best

This pass was at 15psi

R/T.......836

60'.......2.076

330......5.513

1/8.......8.226

MPH......88.59

1000.....10.547

1/4........12.503

MPH.......115.19

My 60 foots suck but its the best I could do with those tires and riding the clutch out, If i didnt ride the clutch it would bog (was leaving around 5k rpm)

My trap speeds range from 115-117 which is a good MPH for high 11's but I cant get off the line for s***. I turned the boost to 19psi and all it did was wheel hop, then spin when boost kicked in and got all lose going into second and the extra boost just helped me catch up on top end and run the same numbers.

All in all im pretty happy running those numbers with what the car is equipped with

what you guys think?

Well first off get some slicks or drag radials to help on the spinning.

2nd you can invest in a 2step controller for launch control. This will allow you to build boost on the line and launch ALOT better without bogging.

Yeah next year im thinking of getting some quick time pros and a 2 step but only after I beef up the drive train. Im running on stock axles . Im also probably going to be swapping the motor into a hatch and think about making it a drag car and keeping the coupe for a daily
