I'm at the track right now and just ran a 12.1@120. Its pretty hot but its a lot slower than I was thinking.

ET can vary quite a bit, although 12.1 seems very slow for your set-up. Your trap speed is way off, though. I think something may be wrong with your car. What boost are you running?

that's what I was thinking...I'm running the EPL 1.2 bar pump gas tune and the car put down 565rwhp at Titan.

Are you running extra fuel? 60lb injectors? Extra pump? 5 bar? What boost?

Launch easy, don't try to kill it out of the hole, and shift as high as you can WITHOUT hitting the limiter. See what your MPH is then.

5bar fpr and 1.2bar on 93. No injectors and no extra pump. I've only got about an 1/8th of a tank of fuel in it.

Man, classic example of how comparing two different cars on two different dynos means absolutley nothing. My best dyno number when I ran the 10.9 At 132mph (1.35 bar)was 525 rwhp on a DynoJet. I DO have a tip, but you should be trapping 130's at least I would think.

IMO, you should never run less than 1/3 tank at the strip.

That car is only 1.1-1.15 with a 5 bar and stock injectors. 122-125 max.

130's on a 5 bar tune, pump gas and a hot night at the track? Maybe in a car that weighs sub 3000lbs..

TTboost is 100% correct. First time at the track with the car, no injectors, conservative tune.... you're looking sub 125....

With a few more passes you should be able to get into the 11's!

Temp is 85 and humidity is 80% and my friend is was consistently 5-6mph slower than he normally best runs.

Tony, what do I need to do to get a obd2 cable and send you some datalogs to make sure the car is okay?

40 more whp than you? Again, your comparing dyno numbers...doesn't matter. What if his dyno numbers were in the 600's and he can only run a 7.5 60-130? Again he has the most BASIC 18G kit, not what you and I have...

What I don't get is that I've ran cars that are much faster than 120mph trap and stayed right with them.

The C5Z06 I ran with the built 418 puts down 530rwhp in a car that barely weighs 3000lbs and I stayed at his door.

It is what it is though. I guess I'll definitely be adding injectors and a boost controller soon. Wes actually talked me out of doing this and said when I've gotten use to the power come back and add them.
