fill Member 127 Member For: 19y 4m 22d Location: Sydney Posted 05/04/06 02:02 PM Share Posted 05/04/06 02:02 PM I just thought I would get some opinions on my first 1/4 mile runs in my T.FYI- I drive a 2004 MKI auto with Edit, 42lb injectors, APS exhaust, Wog intercooler, 2nd typhoon CAI with BMC filter,BOV. My current tune has been done by a shop here in Sydney and is currently pushing 279.1rwkw @12psi of boost.I removed the spare and ran the tire pressure at 20psi & 18psi for tonight. I stalled to around 2200 the first few runs, 2400 on the third run (a little wheelspin) and 2000 the last. I did a decent burnout before each run. I was thinking I should be easily into the 12's or at least a 110+ mph but ran the following times/mph. 1st run: 60' 2.209, ET 13.403 @ 107.202nd run: 60' 2.170, ET 13.218 @107.273rd run: 60' 2.134, ET 13.277 @107.264th run: 60' 2.128, ET 13.213@107.78I will post my dyno and time slips tomorrow.My question to all is this, what will get me into the 12's? From looking at other peoples times with this kind of power I should be getting way better times/mph.cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine ran as high as 114 with 275rwkw's and similar mods and has run a string of 12.0's.My advice to get better times with your current power (probably around 250 as someone else mentioned) is to get better tyres (MT ET streets), a shift kit and a higher stall. You'll knock a heap off those times.Just a shift kit and some launch practice will probably see a 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears the track is definiately not delivering the times that calder does, for example.Why that is could be a number of things. Temperature is certainly one of them, so is track condition.

I let the auto do the shifting for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPH is low for those mods / power levels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
