Default H2b ek coupe 1/4 times?

Hey guys i have a ek coupe with an h2b setup on street tires. Full weight basically. Dynoed at 211/170.

What time should i expect in the 1/4 with a decent launch?

I'm shooting for mid 13's, is this an attainable goal on street tires?

Thanks! And sorry if this question is in the wrong section.

Look around and compare but two main things will effect your "goal"

#1 Your track conditions ie elevation, temps, prep, headwind etc

#2 seat time ie preloading, feathering clutch/gas, shifting skills etc

211 whp is plenty of power for 13s in a decent weight EK

I went 13.6@101 or so with about 165whp/2440 lbs with a full US itr swap rev limited to 8200 rpm ...on a 2.08 60 ft which isn't great

This was in the fall, at night with temps in the low 70s high 60s.

Given you'll have way more power it will be a matter of cutting good short times. But even with a 2.2 60 ft your power should realistically be able to still run mid to low 13s on streets depending on weight and track conditions. All motor setups are very sensitive to track conditions

I will say street tires are very inconsistent to launch on and have a very small window to operate in for proper launches ......slicks will solve alot of problems and make launching a snap.
