It doesn't take much thinking to guess what the pressure was for! He actually stated the PSI in a sentence that is related to tires.

LOL! Classics!

48 psi is hella high for tire pressure.....could it be oil pressure? (Seems kinda low for that!)

I used to run low 13's on my setup, but since i've got all the new parts on my car, it's slower...definately in need of tuning...

I run Nitto 555R drag radials on lightweight 16" rims.225/50 16's to match height of the front rims i run 17" w/ 215/40 17's...

I run more boost than tire pressure ; ) about 14-16psi in the rear tires (trial and error)...

tires are too skinny, but no option due to rim size...definitly recommend a wider tire/rim.

Definitly recommend trailer or spare axles

Oh, i would of skipped right over drag radials and straight to slicks, but i wanted to run the street tire class last year, otherwise, i'd recommend full slicks, and some nice skinny 3 piece bogarts with some BF's in the front : )

Oh you mean Drag Race Tracks! I don't do that, I like turning corners!

I know it is. I bought tires on a Monday, didn't check the pressure, drove to Vegas that Friday, and raced there, never checking my tire pressure. I have them at about 20 when I'm racing now. 48 psi is above the max for those tires anyways, I don't know why they put that much air in my tires when I bought them. 44 is the max.

well if they put it up to 44psi and then you drove around and after that checked your psi, then it can jump up to 48 air expands when it gets hotter

I just ran at the track, my best time was [email protected]. I only got about a .1 from my exhaust I guess. But it might have been because it was cold as **** and I could hardly hook up. Out on the street I've been dropping it at 4k but that day at the track I couldnt even drop it at 3k. I have Kumo 712s too. It seemed like it lost more traction when I lowered the pressure. I went from 44 to 35 and was still spinng like crazy, so I went to 25 and it still spun just as bad or worse. It also could be because It was getting colder.. Go figure.. Anyway, what's the average gain realized with an Injen CAI?

No way. KA w/ exhaust. That would be pathetic with an SR.
