No matter what you tell yourself, in the back of your head you know what you're really expecting. Just go there and see, hopefully its goes how you want. Good luck. Last time i went to the track hoping for 12's i left with a 13.6.

yeah its never how it seems haha my brother did the first swap in our town years ago and had a bunch of stuff done to the motor and we were sure that it was going to be in the 13s but his best was a 14.6 but he had a shitload of tire spin haha he would of been in the 13s with slicks i think

thanks though for the encouragement

Since your running slicks, there should be no problem with that setup. But you need to run like 10+ psi. Don't go more than 12 though if you plan on driving this daily and beating on it.

BTW... What back house is on the turbo? Good luck

plenty of guys w/ SOHCs have ran mid to low 12s, including myself. [see sig]

i'm not sure how well the stock clutch will hold up at the track w/ slicks. But i wish you the best.

you are the one that gave me the hope haha i asked you about slick size, so i might get a intake mani and a few other little things but a good tune and 12-13psi should put me damb close if not there all i need is a 12.9999.

thanks
