Talking First Race Day

So i took the car out to the strip for the opening T/T day. Last year my best ET was 14.5

I added a CA V2 Header and an XTC 2.5 Catted DP and just ran a 14.2 @ 98

I trapped 101.4 and 101.7 a couple of runs too so i know i can do better then my 14.2

At sea level my time would be 13.8 @ 101 just in case anyone is wondering elevation.(2300ft)

my 60' times were shitty, 2.3's everytime

think i can do a 14.0?

You should easily be able to break 13's with those mods. I didnt get to bring my car to the track last time but my friend had the same setup as you (different brand exhausts, but same sizes barring catback) and with a shitty 2.4 60' and hot lapping the car like 5 times he cut consitent 14.1's at 104mph at about 1600ft elevation.. Get the 60' down and get MADSHIFTINGSKILLS and be happy in the 13s! 2300ft isnt that high either.

its funny tho on my runs with the 101 trap i had a shitty 60'

if i can get a 2.2 and a 101mph trap i should be 14.0 for sure, i would love a 13.9 hell even a 13.99999999

not quite sure how you think 14.20 converts to 13.20. Thats a FULL second off.

Use this standard altitude correction table:

and when you mutiply for the correct factor for 2300 feet, you get 13.81.
