Are those brake duct intakes in the front grills? If so, can you share some insight and/or pictures of the materials, package, routing, etc...???

I believe Meridian is lighter, I would guess its Seal.

Thanks for the compliments.
Its Seal Grey.
I lost that race for sure.
The brake ducts are Sportech.
My best drag time is a 12.0@119. My 60ft was 2.1-2.0.
for some reason, I cant get a good 60ft. Itll either spin or bog. I think its my clutch. Its either on or off. Im happy with the MPH.

KSA,
Yeah, i bought them. They are WAY overpriced though. I think they were $700. Funny thing is when we put them in, The tubes shoot right onto the wheels. We had to move the horn and cut out a bunch of plastic. its a really tight fit in there. They look real good though.

It's not the clutch. Basically, our cars just aren't meant to "launch" given the RWD bias of the AWD system. My typical 60ft is 1.9x - 2.0x. However, I did cut a 1.79 ... once. With just exhaust (and heavy 19" wheels), my best trap on pump gas (stock boost/ECU, stock everything else) was 116.25. I have found that launching around 2500-2700rpm gives the best results. Anything higher and you get horrible wheel hop from spinning the rears. Anything less and you bog. It is a VERY fine line. Just make sure that you don't run through the water pit.
