looking to hit 12's quarter mile

Hey everyone

I had my turbo swap to a VF39 did not get a chance to tune as yet but was curious to know what i was running before i tune so i went up the track again ( ENGLISHTOWN) just did 2 runs.These are my numbers:

RT .437 .745

60 FT 2.149 2.018

1/4 mile 13.362 13.386

mph 105.29 104.15

What i wanna know do u think i will be able to break the 12 sec after i install my methanol injection and tune?
And also ZMANOSIDE good job and u were also right my trap speed do look more realistic with my new times.

Thanks guys.

i can't believe u made some passes without a tune on an upgraded turbo. i wanna say work on your launch but u need to work on a tune first. lucky u didn't break anything.

a tune is going to be limited by your stock fuel system. You really aught to replace the injectors, fuel pump, and throw on a bigger intercooler to go along with that new turbo. Do all that and tune it and you'll be where you want...

well you REALLY don't want to drive much on different injectors than stock without a re-tune. That's pretty bad.

i had Snow Performance Meth kit and it was the biggest joke of all Meth kits out there, the pump looked like it came out of our boat for the bildge pump, you can run a few more psi but you can bump your timing while your doing this as well, i did feel a difference after i got it tuned but just make sure you have some type of low level light on your meth tank

meth injection ain't worth it unless you have an ECU that can react if it's not getting the right flow (hydra or similar).
