Sorry, my scanner's not working so Im just going to write my best time.
It took alot of getting the hang of launching my car and still am not that great at it since it was my first time while boosted. I was at 8psi, All season tires, and spinning 1st and 2nd gear. Im pretty sure with a 3' inch exhaust, drag radials, and the better tune that Im still waiting on I will be in the 13's.
One gli I ran, ran a 14.4 @ 95, and my trap speed is 99. So Im pretty sure theres more out of her to get.

R/T - .358
60' - 2.413 <----I need to work on this. Blah.
330 - 6.321
1/8 - 9.466
Mph - 78.89
1000 - 12.149
1/4 - 14.418
Mph - 99.46

I was looking for a high 13, or a 14 flat. I just wasn't yous'to launchin my car with over 100hp added to the car. Id bog, then Id spin. I need to find the perfect spot to lauch with better tires , and I believe I coud hit a high 13 with my setup stated in my first post.
 
That's a good run. My best run 1st time to Moroso was a 14.4 @ 98.xmph.
 
That's awesome man!!!! I can't launch for s*** myself so I have only been to the track once and I trapped at 99mph but could onl get a 15 because I spun all the way into the middle of 3rd. I caught up to the modded VR6 I raced and beat him though. When you get the launch down, do tell the secrets. I wanna hit 13's on 8psi too. Good job....get er tuned!(thumb)
 
I got to work on my launch. Heres some cars that I ran against that similar times but trapped lower.

A modded gli that also ran a 14.4 that trapped 95.

A srt4 that ran a 13.8 that trapped 98.

Im guessing with my trap time I should be in the high 13's right.

I talked to manuel today before work and am going back next weekend to block off the butterflies on the intake manifold and get retuned. Then a few weeks down the road, Im getting a 3'' exhaust.
