Thanks, it's definetly a fun ride. at 116 MPH I was only putting down about 450 HP to the wheels, I know my car makes 630 RWHP, and with the heavier wastegate spring I'll be over 700 RWHP. Goal is to at least get in the 10's, maybe 9's with the antilag hooked up and some spray down the road.

Nice run man. Are you going to hook with just drag radials. Usually anti lag with a high rpm launch will blow the drag radials right off. I think you'll at least need some slick to have any chance of hooking with antilag. Anyways, get it setup I want to see how it runs. I'm going to do a 6spd in about half a year or so. I might have a few questions for you or your buddy that did the swap.

Darin told me he set's it up at 15psi with his drag radials and cuts 1.6's all day long. These big tires don't spin much at all, I was launching at 6000 rpm and didn't spin really at all.

Agreed anti-lag can be pretty violent to launch. have to try it and see. Adam what boost were you running on that run 25psi?

It was set to 20 psi, I turned it down after my clutch started slipping on the 1st pass. I Even at 20 psi I was having clutch problems and the boost kept surging, I need to figure that out, beginning to dislike the Greddy Profec Spec II.

Darin has nearly all of his customer cars on antilag, he used to run it on drag radials with his old setup and would cut consistent 1.6 60 foot times coming out at 15psi. I didn't have any wheel spin issue leaving at 6000 rpm, I think the antilag would have prevented me from bogging after the launch.

the profec can be tricky, i Have one on my nissan working like it should. The manual is confusing and is lost in translation. Its actualy really important step......... some where on the internet shows how to set one up correctly. I forgot the trick as its been a while

Default impressive

MT Drag Radials will get you closer to your goal.

it took me some time to find the right rpm to launch without breaking loose.
I switched to the Drag Radials and the confidence got higher and the 10's we then consistent until being asked to either slow down or get kicked off or banned.

Now Im in fat tire 28x9x15's and when these hook at full boost you will know you will have a good 60 ft and mph!

don't get too over confident, get to know how your car handles with the different tire setup.

Good luck this season, you will reach your 10's before year end or sooner with Drag Radials.

Went to DD Tuning yesterday and spent some time with Darin tuning the Lexus. We filled her up with 93 octane and spent about an hour tuning the car in, Darin really did a great job cleaning the driveability and got the tune spot on with the new turbo / cams. Last night I went to the track on pump gas and got to spank down my friends 5.0 Mustang with a 383, I ran 12.4 @ 124. I was very happy with my MPH and cant wait to get the antilag, line lock, E85 set up with some new tires. I have a couple of videos I'll post up. If I could have just duplicated my 2.0 60 foot that I did last time I would have gone 11.6's on pump gas. My 60 foot was horrible with a 2.4 this time out, I think the bog difference was the fact that my drag radials are below the wear bars now, where the last time they were new.

Things will be different now that I have my anti-lag set up, I'll be out there again very soon to destroy my last time.

It shouldn't be..just need good tires that will hook. Its hard to find that on 19s..and even 18s.

Im still surprised this list has 14s on it still..lol Adam should be smoking the top time shortly id imagine. Didnt you have a 6spd supra at one time that ran low 10s?

Anyone have any updates?
