Hung out at Alternative Auto this morning... I haven't had the car on the dyno since I switched out the tires and wheels... I wanted to see if the smaller tires made a difference.... well they didn't change the HP at all but it appears to have increased the Torque. Lidio sprayed a little earlier than he has in the past... but between the tires and the early spray... well take a look at the dyno sheet!!! LOL!

Also.. I've probably made close to 30 passes at the track and a dozen pulls on the dyno... some 75HP and some 100HP shots... Now I've notice a few of the GT guys have burned up their spark plugs... which made me a tad nervous... so we pulled a plug out of my car... The spark plug looked perfectly normal... no signs of burning what so ever! Now I realize we only pulled one plug (we were pressed for time today)... but that one plug looked great considering how many bottles I've run through! LOL! Lidio also noticed that the plugs in our V6's are actually a colder plug than the GTs... hmmmmm... I'm still running the stock gapping on the plugs... We'll probably pull all the plugs shortly and gap them better for the N20...

Ok... here' s today's sheet!

and I wanna break into the 12s... any which way I can! LOL!

Tomorrow will probably be my last outing to the track... There is a slim chance I could maybe get one more track day in next weekend... but then everything will be closed up here in Michigan.. Then I'll save my pennies over the winter for a set of DRs...

12s you should be able to do no problem. What psi are u running in those back tires? Im thinkin with your tires and setup you should be able to get into the 1.9s for ur 60ft even with the automatic. 1.8's maybe.
Im hopin to get into the 2.0s with my stock tires and no posi in the rear. need to shave half a tenth to get there. When i get posi and some different tires/rims hopefully i can get some 1.8s with my 5 speed.

The nitto 450s are just a regular street radial... so they seem to run best around 30 psi...

I've yet to be able to break the 2.0... I still have to much spin... DRs next year! oh, after the girdle... LOL

With the gears and t-lock (before the Zex) the car was 2.146 at 60'....
