With just an exhaust, I ran a 12.29 @ 116.25mph in my turbo with a 1.79 60ft.

Spun through 1st and 2nd as I recall. I make no claims as a driver, but it sure was fun!!

With that much power, street tires, and no traction control, I wouldn't expect the tires not to spin in all honesty.

You did nothing wrong, in my opinion. It will take a while to get used to the power (and putting it to the ground).

How much horsepower is the flash suppose to give the GT2? How about the air intake? Any idea what your total hp number is suppose to be?

With some more practice you should be able to drop a few more tenths off that time.

Nice job!
