Default Ran a new personal best on street tires!

Went to the track yesterday and ran a new personl best on street tires. Here is the timeslip for that run

I was running on 195/50/15 Kumho Ecsta 711's with 28psi in them. My best 60' was a 2.185 on them yesterday. My car was running really well yesterday considering it was also the first time that I have ever ran with a full exhaust also. Im running a 3" mandrel downpipe to the converter then a small 2.25" back to the muffler. Still ran strong as it did without the exhaust and the same amount of boost which is 9-10psi pretty much.

Havent dyno'd yet need to though. I want to front mount my intercooler and paint it black because it does get heat soaked pretty bad sometimes. I forgot to mention that I have a SAFC also.

I want to get some drag radials but not sure what size or kind to get? Im not sure how much power that Im making but I was doing better than an Integra GSR with a Drag turbo kit running at about 8psi. He was using drag radials but couldnt get it to launch right. His 60' wasnt really any better than mine? And Im running on the Kumho's.

well im almost positive that drag radials will help.....IF you have alot of tire spin through the 60 ft....the drag radial i used were a friends and they were like 15" BF goodrich or something like a 50 series....he would probably sell them if you are interested cheap too
