first time at the track. with this setup
just finished the new build. and got tuned on wed.
car made

the setup is
SOHC
vitara built block. stock length fjt rods
port and polished head
59500 cam
supertech springs skunk2 retainers. stock valves
precision 6262 turbo
go-autoworks backdoor fmic and piping
GE intake manifold

took it to the track yesterday for the first time.
last setup ran 11.9 with 300whp
goal this year is 10's
two best passes were
11.01@129mph 1.8 60ft
11.2@121 1.960ft missing fourth gear.
fasted mph was 133 on a 11.4 pass just bad 60ft.
had problems bogging 2nd gear.just wasnt riding the limiter long enough in 1st i think. and the burnouts were terrible. def has a mid 10 pass in it on more seat time and a better prepped track.

comments and tips welcome.

thank you sir. car runs amazingly smooth. was tuned by brian husted at wrenches in des moines iowa. did a awesome job.
def would of made more power but i told him to stop when it made 475.
also the car is still on the stock axles that came from the factory.

next time im going to lower the tire psi just a little more.i was running 10psi this time. prolly drop it another psi or 2
i ran 10 psi in my 25s, could have def ran lower but i liked the little spin, you def have the power to run faster than me!
i was in a heavy 99 em1

Are you running slicks? Definitely could improve on the 60'. Once you do that, youll probably stop falling out of boost into 2nd.
I run 5.5psi in my 24.5x9.5-13s.
[EDIT] Setup looks great BTW. VERY VERY similar to my setup. Definitely making some good power. How much boost?

also it is on 28psi. only did one pull at 28psi on the dyno. told them to stop cause i was happy with that. def could of made more at that boost
Sick man! Yea, I would start at 8, and work your way down from there. 10 psi is definitely killing your 60'. You dont have as much sidewall with the 15" rim. So I dunno if I would run 6 or anything. But 7-8 would probably be perfect.
Very nice times. At what psi did it take to make that graph? Also switch to a 13 inch rim for the extra side wall and a 24.5 tire. This should greatly help your short track.
23's are enough for me atm. and new wheels and slicks cost money. and when i already have a set il work with what i got ya know
24.5's will be way to tall at the moment for him. He still has a ton of mph left in 4th so stepping up to a 24.5 is going to slow him down. What transmission are you using? I forgot to ask that over on the other forum?
car is moving john, keep doin what ur doin. its nice to have some good competition in the area, now we have more motivation to make more power and wack ur car, lol.
let us know if u ever need help or parts, always willing to help out a fellow racer

im positive it can make over 500whp on 28psi. it made the 475whp at 28psi the first pull and i said stop. no more pulls were made to change anything. def could of got more out of it.
Look up map proving grounds for more info on race, two day event with huge party and nice people with funny accents lol. Any plans on a b series trans in your future?
24.5 is definitely too tall for a D tranny. 23 is right where you want to be. Itd just be nice to have the sidewall from a 13. But you can still do well with the 15. I had friends running 10s, at my altitude, with D trannies and 22x8x15s.
i totally agree. im always looking for a set of wheels. but people want way to much. if rather buy new then pay to much used
