It was on 92 octane pump gas. Tank half full and full interior.

Sounds good, I'll let you know the next time I'm heading to the track, there aren't to many evo's here. There were several SRT-4's and WRX's though. It's not the greatest track but it's the only thing close. I would like to make a trip to Seattle some time this year cause most people I've talked to around here say that they run .2-.3sec faster over there.

You could mix in some gas at the track.. most tracks have at least 100 octane.. just add a few gallons

I am running those tires as well and I am very happy with them in a straight line. They blow *** in the corners though. I have basically the same setup you do so here are my time to help put a little perspective on things.

1.922 1.868
8.287 8.272
@83.80 @83.92
12.858 12.833
@108.72 @108.36

I was on bald advans and I am still on the stock clutch as well and that is holding me back in my launching. So with a better launch and a little better shifting I think those time are doable for sure.

Nice times with the stock clutch. If you could pull 1.6-1.7 60ft's then you would be mid to low 12's easy. I only wish I knew why my trap speed was so low, about 1-2mph slower then you.

I'm pretty happy with the tires for the price, if you don't plan on autocrossing I would reccomend them for sure if someone was looking for an inexpensive tire.

let me say too, nice job bro!
those are some nice numbers. I don't know about on an awd car, but I've always heard 0.1 off the 60' will be 0.2 off the 1/4 mile. You must shift like lightning! Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!
I'd like to see what your car pulls on the dyno, very curious with your mods.
And of course, just like some people end up with lemons, there are those few cars out there that by shear luck end up with the best of all parts. you got the exact opposite of a lemon, possibly.
(but I think your driver skill did play a part... )

Thanks for all the nice comments guys!!

I would love to be able to dyno the car but the closest AWD dyno is 5hrs away. Maybe I'll have to take a vacation this summer

The Cusco clutch I have is awsome, I know its pricey but it hasn't shown any signs of slipping.
