Dude with those mods, you should get a Custom tune instead of the Dynoflash (unless you did get the custom tune from them) And I think you need to give us a Horsepower Idea, your probaly pushing over 370 awhp, so I gues you looking low 12s to mid 11s. But I am not an Expert. Just Run it, hurry before all the Tracks close for the Winter.

13.2 @ 106mph

Injectors were a waste of money, so were the crower vsprings and ARP studs and the trans won't make the car faster either. Fidanza gears are likely at 0/0 because you thought they looked shiny and cool. They won't add power, even if you thought you had a good setting for them by copying an HKS 280 setting you read on evom. BOV probably has the blue spring in it that leaks at 12psi.

Furthermore its all about the tuning and driving. Well enough said there...

Good Luck.

I pulled 3 gears on ProccoEvo before he caught me on the top end and he runs 10.2 @ 140mph with 765whp.

Does that mean I have 800whp and run 9.9's? No.

Stop benchracing and run your 12.8-13.4 and post up your slip.

Many people have the misconception that as a vendor I am bound to make you feel good by telling you you'll run overly fast times. You see, the difference between TTP and the rest is I am also someone like you, been there and done that. An enthusiast that is out there doing the things you do, drag racing, modding, building, modding and tuning. The difference is I don't do it to profit, I do it because it is what I enjoy doing and I truly love these cars and want to see others with the same successful mod path.

Instead of telling you you'll run low 11's, I get REAL with you. Its not meant to hurt your feelings. It is meant to keep it real and set your expectations within realistic horizons.

Nothing I stated was but the truth. So when I said I urge you to run the car, I just want to see confirmation of my estimated ET.

Compcams take a SPECIFIC type of tuning on top of all the other things I mentioned.

Point is, mods don't increase power. Precise and purposeful modification with proper tuning makes power. Without both, you just have a cammed Evo with meaningless mods and questionable tuning on a specific cam profile that will only accept tuning a certain way which differs from other cams. My suspician is due to the lift.
