I'm pretty happy with the improvement the converter made, even on regular street tires. Did a best of 13.23 @ 103.5 (1.97 60'), previous best was 13.79 @ 102.
Next time I go I'll have the same setup, but with drag radials too, wonder if very high 12s is being too optimistic? :eek: :lol:
Also weighed my car there.. with me + 2/3 tank of gas it weighs exactly 3800lbs.

drag radials and less gas should get you there. if not bottlefeed.

No bottle for me.. I kinda like to see how far I can get n/a. :)

I think you'll be close, did you remove the spare and stuff from the trunk? Also did you get a copy of your dyno sheet? I would like to see where your at, I understand if you don't want to show I was curious what kind of numbers yor putting down.

There were no extra items in the car, but no parts that came with the car was removed.. I like to see what the car can do when it's the exact same as during my everyday driving since it's very much a daily driver. :lol:
As for the dyno, it shows a max of 291 / 307.
My former best 60' was around 2.0, and I know the converter is worth a bigger improvement than 0.1 if I just get tires I can do a real launch on.. last night was all pretty careful launches to keep from spinning.
