Tomei Arms @ The Track!!! 11.8@120

MY Personal best is now 11.75 with a 1.789 60' btw....

I'll just start off by saying that I'm really happy I could go to the track tonight and the turbo cause its performed like a champ. I'm leaving tomorrow to go back to school and I'm really happy with the end result that I had. I would like to thank ASAPPerformance and Cwill for helping me through everything, my dad for filming(I'll have the vid up later) and my Mom for cooking me a delicious dinner when I got home

You can find more info and mods on my set-up here..
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...round-2-a.html

Basically the car is a IX SE, full interior and I had nothing taken out of it today, i also have a 10 inch sub and two Amps in the trunk. Its 3460 with me in it. Bridgestone street tires. 93 pump gas, boosting 25psi

Here's the breakdown of the slip:

R/T - .942
60' - 1.852
330 - 5.026
1/8 - 7.696
MPH - 90.87
1000 - 9.973
1/4 - 11.886
MPH - 120.13

Thank you guys, Cwill did a really great job on the dyno, the car pulled smooth through all the gears and i never had any misfires or nothing like that....yea the car pulled good on the last half, im pretty sure like I said earlier that the Kelford 272's might have help with that, combined with the right tuning.

I think Luis's car picks up so much has alot to do with the gearing, It has an evo8 4th gear and a 9 tranny so 3rd is short and 4th is really long. Congrats again

That's true how much weight do I have to take off to go like 2 tenths quicker?

The old rule of thumb is for every 100 pounds, you go 1/10th faster. It's about as accurate as a gforce unit telling you your estimated whp, but it's still good to be light!

I am picking up 28 mph on the backhalf, on a bad run, with the stock turbo, so weight has to be helping me out at least a little bit The cool thing with our cars is that you can find weight everywhere, without affecting noise and handling!

work on that 60ft..try some diff. tires and pressures. you sould be cutting 1.7's or 1.6's..That is a lot of pick up on the top end...30 mph is a great pick up.
to answer your question on weight reduction...typically 100lbs reduction is .1 of a second...something else you might look into is shifting...try the tephra NLTS mod..that will drop you .3 or better.

Thanks again and all good info, I also forgot about the tranny sorry....so theoretically if I drop 200lbs and get a low 1.7- high 1.6 then I can go 11.3 or so on my set-up?? That would be amazing I would love to do that...btw just or comparison a Porsche gt3 was going 12.5 at the track...I love Evos..ftw

11.3 is going to be tough, but you can do it. It would take a perfect run, but definitely go for it!
