hey guys i just wanted some input. I run 13.698 @ 101.5 w/ 2.00 60 with a internally stock 7mgte, ct-26 50 trim, full exhaust, intake, and large fmic with 2.25 inch piping @ 10psi on 245/50/16 street tires on mk4 n/a wheels. i am in the process of going ffim with a 1jz intercooler and 2.5 inch piping and turning up the boost to 15psi and tuning with maft basic. i really want to run 12's on street tires do you think it's possible with my upgrades? if needed i can go to a 255/50/16. what do you guys think? (please don't clutter up my thread with "you better go mhg or you won't be running anything" when it blows i'll go mhg)

2.0 60' isnt that bad on street tires. 10psi is what's keeping you in the 13's. more boost and tuning will get you there.

i see you are in cincy- do you go to edgewater?

so how much do you( nate) and duane do in a 1/4?
with 800 rwhp.....


Nate does consistant 14's I believe.... ;)

I ran 12.2's on cheap ass kumho ecsta supra's in a 245/40/17 with a 2.4 60ft... Although, on nitto drag radials, I did 11.90's at the same boost with a 1.90 sixty foot. Had I gotten some Et street DR's, I would have run 3 tenths faster probably... ha. 11.90 @ 124 lol

I haven't done any full passes on my new 800 RWHP set-up.
With my old set-up (620RWHP), I did a best of 11.00@130MP. I will hit the track eventually. Still waiting on a crank pulley from ATI to show :(

Oh, and street tires at the track are as usless as pockets in underwear...

hmm dosnt that seem a little down on power? with a stock ct i did 13.6 at 10 pounds of boost with a ~2.1 60 foot.
yeah i think it's because my intercooler is too big and piping is too small. also i found i had a small boost leak that day.
