[ZSHO]

Great times Rich,maybe that wind was in your favor,lol ,hopefully we can meet up next time and congrats.

Sorry for the late reply guy's, Yes I was def. very happy with Torrie yesterday to say the least. It was a nice cold night 42-44 degrees, but 20mph dead head wind was killing me,and crappy barometer. it's never windy at night, but a storm was moving out of the area. Yea, I'm 6-3 265lbs and went the 12.14, and spun the tires off the line and when it shifted, so 2nd run I brought the RPM from 2400 to 2000 trying to see if maybe the car would like it and hook better, but no good, lost 60 foot time and went a 12.18. I will continue to work with TORRIE / UNLEASHED, and I promise, I want to be the 1st SHO in the 11's WITHOUT upgraded Turbo's. I have to start with doing my homework to get this car to dead hook, and get me a Cat. Back Exhaust system,hell I might even go on a diet...LOL    TO BE CONTINUED.....

[SHOdded]

Lose some weight ... that's commitment   Interesting your higher RPM launch worked better, sounds more like a stock scenario.  Update your sig, you blew your old PB away!

Might just need a bit warmer surface combined with a great prep day.

Best of luck on hitting that elusive 11 second bracket. 11 second land yachts give me goose bumps!!!

I'd love to see an in car video of you doing some 0-120 pulls, be fun to see watch that speedometer!

[ZSHO]

I think the Eagle F1'S summer tires played a prominent role during 0-60 launch based on the colder weather causing traction issues,we sometimes overlook our tires and and our only objective is cooler weather=lower IAT=BETTER ET,there are so many variabes to consider as to the type of tire to use on the track.

[SHOdded]

Yeah, could be the 2400 launch heated the tires just enough to get better traction.

Lose that K&N and I bet you'll have an 11 second car.

Great times!

I have been reading your post's on the extensive testing you have been doing with the CAI.  AWESOME job by the way. I thought about that a lot in the last week or so, and I was thinking of changing the K&N with a Airaid, but when Ireally thought about it, I didnt think taking out the K&N during this cold air, and having the engine cool, and only going down the 1/4 mile would make ANY difference, especially when it's cold out. Any thoughts on that?

Damn I should have went with torrie I have 2014 and have livernois tune downpipe full exhaust meth kit basically everything you have and the best I could get is 12.5 and most of my runs have been 12.6 and 12.7! I know livernois hasn't got any of the 13 or 14 Shos in the 12.2. Very dissapointed in the money I spent with the money I spent with livernois for there meth kit and only pick up 2 tenth in the quarter mile!

That 60' is one of the best I've seen from a SHO. Not much room for improvement there it looks. Those temps and east coast, what was the DA? I'M guessing -1200.

That negative DA is a plus out here in the east coast compared to the higher elevation areas,personally ran a 12.79 with just a tune and an Airaid cai at the same track last winter,the old man should be out of the hospital by the end of the week,they see a little progression in him,hopefully can hit the track this week cause of lifes unexpected obstacles been itching to go.

Best of luck to you and your family buddy.

Our local track just closed for the year this past weekend. Might be some private runs left there as a real good buddy from school just informed me that he knows the owners of Milan personally and can get us out there for free anytime....what timing as the year ends.

I thought about this a lot and I'm now wondering if the k&n may be helpful at your power level with meth. You aren't nearly as heat  challenged like us non meth guys are so the open element may not be an issue.

Maybe you could do some IAT 2 testing with both?

id love to see the difference in the summer at the track with a thoroughly heat soaked engine.
