my car at the track, thanks guys
Well both my boys broke there cars (diffs exploded) but mine held up.
I pulled most of the interior and put on the bfg drag radials. Im running a 2000si with a 259hp turbo setup. i ran a 9.1 (1/8th). witha 2.2 60ft. this is my best 60ft time yet, thanks to your input and advise!!!! The only prob was that in first gear i only do about 4psi before i have to shift, and then in second the boost builds up to 10psi and the tires just light up, this also happens in 3ed when i reach 10psi. I ran the tires ith 16psi of pressure. What the chance that a longer burnout would fixe my traction problems? I dont have these probelms on the street with my 17s. Should i just try run with them? i think the diameter of the slicks i causeing some traction probs. and thats why the 17s work better ont he street. what about so stockies?

Re: my car at the track, thanks guys (turbod16y8)
oh, my car is a 2000ex and the motor is a 2000 b16a2 swap. I did it for cost and insurance reasons. I got my ex for $14500 new and the motor swap for $1400 with only 2900 miles on it. Works out great for insurance price. I did run a greddy kit on my old d16 at 9psi i ran a 9.9 with no traction. Pluss i cant drive. im sure with 6psi it would be about a 9.4 with good driver and 8.9-9 with 10psi
