I went to the track last night for the first time.

Best ET was 13.300 at 108.15 mph on BFG KDWs

Best RT was .121

Denver Colorado (altitude)

108mph is good for mid 12's but the both you E.T. and mph are too low for a twin screw even in Denver altitude. I'ld get a different tune

I wouldn't think altitude has anything to do with it if you are forced induction...

The altitude makes everything produce less power.

My current tune is by Jim Sr at JDM Engineering. But it's just an email tune.

Not bad at all. If we correct that for altitude, that's about 12.43@115.75. Good for a first time out.

I did some actual racing at an all Ford event last Sunday and ran consistent 13.1s all day long.

60ft was 2.125

I think I'd probably be safe moving to a 3.0 pulley on my Saleen at this altitude. I just don't know which size belt I would need to go with the 3.0 pulley.

Another guy with a 2006 Mustang and a Whipple was running mid and low 12 ETs with a 2.90 Whipple pulley. He was still using the 6 rib and had a Reichard tensioner. But his supporting mods were basically just like mine. Although he did have the advantage of using some Toyo drag radials too. Plus he has 3.73 gears and mine are the 3.31 gears.
