Default GSR EK w/ bolt ons what should I run?

I went to the track on sat nite and could not get out of the 15's. 15.0 was the best I could manage but my trap speed says I should be a lot faster. Tractions seems my answer to that as my 60 ft times were around 2.6 or 2.7. What are you running on street tires out there adn what type of tires are you using?

Well there are many diffrent things to factor in...but work on your 60ft times buy some better tires maybe aziens although they aren't really ment for draging but they have an awsome grip still.

your 60ft times should at least be 2.0

my best 60ft times with my aziens have been 1.98 at 20lbs
and all i have is a gsr with aem and a bent to hell dc 4-2-1 and some 97spec r cams...best time to date is 14.3 untuned in a 96 4DR!

My mph was 94-95 miles per hour which I think should definately get me in the 14's which is what I am shooting for.
