" My best time on the stock K16's is almost identical to yours; I ran 11.65 @ 126 with only intake, exhaust and flash. My car was still AWD and full-weight at the time. "

Right. Those were MANUAL cars and they were cutting 1.7-1.8 60' times. You will NEVER do that in a tip. I ran 11.59 on my K16 car, and that was with a 1.7792 60' time. That's a 4k clutch dump. Unless you powerbrake, you're not even going to get close to a 2.2 60'.
The 1/4 mile ET is MADE in the 60' time, nowhere else (besides shifting). Every 0.10 drop in 60' time is roughly equivalent to a 0.30 drop in 1/4 mile ET all else being equal.
The 1/4 mile ET is MADE in the 60' time, nowhere else (besides shifting). Every 0.10 drop in 60' time is roughly equivalent to a 0.30 drop in 1/4 mile ET all else being equal.

On the other hand, the Switzer 997 TIP will do 1.6 60' in AWD.
Having seen Tym drive DSMs way back in the day, I can tell you now that he's definitely NOT babying that thing off the line! LOL.
