Default Wat can u refer to me?

Hey guys..i have a simple street setup only..nothin too crazy..but i cant seem to lower my time..i reviewed couple of My track vids and realized that my rear sags a lot when i launch..ive been trying to reach 1.7 60ft but its proving difficult..i have a 91 crx si wit a b20vtec making around 230hp/153tq running on 22x8x13 racemasters..My best is 12.81@106 with 1.9 60ft launching at 8k rpm..this is on a half tune cuz still need to adjust my cams(s2s2) as they are still at 0,0 n havent touched my ignition map..i feel like i have to make them spin excessively to run faster but im afraid it mite be too much from My rear sagging..any pointers would help..

I'm no expert by any means, but try getting them tires spinning faster in the burnout box ( more mph), like 2nd gear? And roll out of the burnout box before you do your burnout, main reason being is that when your in the box spinning the tires it's throwing water all up in the fenderwell, and will drip water on to the tires. Also try stiffening up the rear suspension and play with the tire pressure, I usually on street cars start off at 10 psi and if the car spins start dropping the pressure till it leaves like you want it. And as always, seat time is your best friend.

First step would be to get the car properly tuned. You don't need to launch that high. How much PSI in the tire? are you preloading or just dropping the clutch from the floor?

What your engine set up? 230whp on s2s2 untuned seems fairly high. Regardless, a proper tune is always the first step when diagnosing problems of any kind

Yea..lowends feels real real good..but as soon as i got to 3rd..it seems to lag a bit..maybe the tuner2 at 0,0 is killing me..i was running at 10psi..when i preload i run slower so i just dump..
