Default I finally ran my car in the 1/4

Well after all these months of building her up I got a chance to run it tonight. My boost controller was all messed up so I couldnt run over 8-9 psi. No matter what I did it would not adjust. Im running the Turbo XS dual stage controller and neither low or high settings would adjust.
On my best run it spiked 10 psi and held 8-9 the whole time. That netted me a 12.40@112.17:
60 1.878
330 5.238
1/8 7.99
MPH 88.96
1000 10.393
1/4 12.409
MPH 112.17

All in all I am very impressed with the car and the way it ran tonight for only being 8-9 psi max. Heres my LS-VTEC set up:
83mm GE sleeved B18a bottom end
JG proseries Head (B16 head)
T3/T4E turbonetics (specs unknown)
Arias Pistons 9.1 comp
Eagle H beam rods
rev hard log style mani
open dp (3 inch)
JG Victor X intake mani
Spearco front mount
Hondata 3bd
MSD 720 cc
Quaife LSD
Clutch specialties 6 puck
lots of other little stuff too

This was my first time out on slicks ever. I ran on 25x8 M&Hs. With more practice I could have gotten to a 1.7 considering my first run i had a 2.1 60 ft and my fourth and last run i did a 1.8. Im gonna get that boost controller fixed, crank it up to 20 psi and see what happens.
