what was your trap speed? also, was it hot/warm? times seem a little slower than they should be, given the mods you have.

you need to get some vertical links, and the steed irs cradle lock outs. I tried the bmr lockout brackets, and they didn't do much (the $40 ones) I hear the steeda setup works great, though I think bmr just came out with a similar product. I have the SR vertical links. they helped, I also get pretty bad hop in 2nd gear, even on the street. your 60ft time isn't too bad though.

When looking at the drag link in the v6 forum on here they seemed better than what people were getting with same mods. Trap speed was 101. Was cool out.

The MT where really good to me. My best 0-60 ft on stock tires were 2.5 so I felt like they got me off the line well.

Launching at 3k slipped clutch and rolled on gas slower

If it doesn't rain later I will pull it out of the garage and take a pic for you.

What track did you run at? I'd do a DA calculation to see how much faster you'll be on a nice fall night with negative DA. I'd expect you to be around 13.4-13.6 in good air.

I don't know how accurate track aps is, but my best so far is a 13.3@105

maybe with those long tubes, you need some gears...

I think the 3.15 would be better wouldn't need to shift as much which could make up for some of that time.

[MENTION=21090]BE6Pony[/MENTION] what day and time you ran at drag strip? I would like to find out what was DA at that time. I did run 13.6@102 with tune, Gibson Catback and JLT CAI in 1100ft DA. My best run was 13.6@104 in negative DA with just tune and Catback on stock 17s tires.

DA was 2078. You didn't mention your trap speed so I used 100mph for the correction. And it corrected out to 13.57@zero DA. So on a real nice cool night in October it'll probably run 13.2-13.4. If you can cut that 2.0 sixty down to a 1.8 you'll be flirting with 12s.
