you dropped over a full second after just 3 runs. that should tell you a little bit of practice can go a long way!

street tires are stupid. put a clutch in there and some slicks. its not even fair trying to judge a car like that on street tires haha

Is your car really heavy? 204whp should yield more than 99mph. My buddy's 100% full weight DX hatch went 13.9 @ 100mph with a stock GSR, I/H/E on Kumho's. 2.3 60's. 204whp is 204whp so I'm going to assume the clutch is done?

well if your clutch is slipping obviously the car isnt accelerating like it should be. the 330's arnt any better than the 60's. the car just isnt going down the track like it should be.

would you run it on 3 cylinders? Then why run it with a slipping clutch and complain about the e.t.? Just practice, and get your car running right.....

I made similar power before, 207whp amd 148tq. This was a k20aR motor With a base map untuned.




I found that 15psi was what i needed in my little *** AVS ES 100s 195/50/15. I was also well into 5th gear.

I found that me launching at 4000rpm and basically tyring to feather the clutch and gas all through first gear, and not to hit rev limit was key. With this i ran a best of 13.0 and@106.5 at MIR.

Also though with me in it my car weighs 2275.

Also what tranny are you running?

I disagree, i think with street tires it takes a real master to try to get it down the track with a decent time.
