Default New track time...can anyone help me get lower?

Hey here is the slip

R/T .438 (red light but still counts)
60' 2.320
330 6.437
1/8 9.819
mph 72.72
1000 12.731
1/4 15.187
mph 90.40
car weight 2610

I have 17" rims with pressure at 36 psi and my only mod is a comptech icebox. Anyone see any major areas to work on without adding more power?

definetly put your stock rims on if you have them and try for a better launch with a 2.2 60ft time and you'll break into the 14's

What about sifting? Currently I am shifting at 8000rpm in every gear. I know the HP starts to drift off around 7600 so should I start shifting at a lower RPM?

Absolutely not. You should shift higher. Shift at the nano second before the rev limiter hits. You have to maximize ALL of your power band. If you shift lower, it's going to put you in a slump in the power band.

You need to ditch those 17' wheels. Or at least put some stockies on the front and run very low tire pressure. 10-15psi up front. Your 60' is utter ****. That's what counts. You have to drop and maximize your 60' to significantly drop your time.

Also, take some stuff out of your car. Passenger seat, rear seat, etc.. Run on 1/8 tank of gas. You'll get a decent time with that setup. Just besure taht your buddy has a electric air pump and extra thing of gas for you.
