I have the Hoosier DR 245/45/17.
that is true. I was there when doug said, what shifter is this crap. lol

stock frame turbo is so much fun. spool fast, good potential, and easier on parts.

I just went through the slips. it was 2 and 2. so I apologize.

I've pulled mid to high 1.5's on all season before with a decent track prep. Big deal though as that was a different day.

Like you it was basically my first time with the talon at the track. I made 1 pass before Friday in the talon. no 2 step, on a safc with 180k miles on the odometer.

That 12.4 must have been slow shifting cuz I went 12.4 at 106 to 108 on wednesday last week 4 times in a row and I was slow shifting...
I can take jokes. I'm just making sure all the facts are straight. 12.4@111=busted DSM trans. Stop messing around with the stock turbo and get some mods on that 1g and Supra.

Drag cars are overrated. Get FP HTA 68,make 420 ish on e85, and leave the 1g alone.

I'm going to give it one shot on the min reduction setting. If it doesn't let me shift into 4th again, its going in the trash.

Don't wanna run. Don't want more problems than I already have PLUS if I don't run, I'll always be the fastest EB evo in my MIND.

*edit*

and that's all that matters to me. Being the greatest. Hahaha!

You should consider going back to the stock shifter, if you can't adjust the B&M.
