so since im finally tuned, im going to the track today ( i say today since its 1:30 am)..its gonna be cold, so i wont run quite as good, but i want to get some numbers before the headers and catback..

and i better run faster than a 14.242 (my last time at the track, untuned on 7* of kr and fuel trims locking at like 10) i ran a freaking 14.514 bone stock on a 90* day...13's have to be reachable..and the 100mph club would be nice too..especially if i can pull a couple more 2.0 60' s

i guess we'll see, ill update you all when i get back.

yeah, most likely. its not the best track either, the genral consensus is that you run .3 slower there than other tracks (blacktop start pad is major culprit) and the prep is never that great..

And while running w/o NAWZ ran a 14.2. Witrh 400 shot somehow you ran a 16...?I guess the rice sensors kicked in and deactivated the blower.
