All I know is that it's in North Jersey, as opposed to ETown which is in South Jersey. How'd you do?

Not bad. Do you have any videos or anything? What was your trap and what mods do you have? I feel like my mounts are bad too, but I don't know for sure. It's very jerky though in 1st and 2nd gears, even 3rd sometimes.

I'm looking for 13.5 but probably won't walk away with anything less than 13.7 depending on how well I launch.

http://www.youtube.com/user/streetK4 - all my videos

trap was about high 98 and i have XS headers, Injen CAI, Underdrive crank pulley, CT axleback.

if you want go that low you must have a light wheels 17 are best and 20 psi at front will help

i did run 14.3 stock and i know with good mounts i would bite like 0,2 maybe even more.

also you dont have LSD i do that help alot. thats may be reason you are jerking at 2nd and 3rd

what is your best 60ft ?

i'd love to hit 13,5 - 13,7 but that require alot of work and skill.

i will be happy to break the 13 next time i fix my mounts

Sadly it's 2.247. Best trap is 100.82 with CAI/Jpipe. I now have precat deletes, ported IM and 3in exhaust. If I get anything in the 2.2x range I should be around 13.7. I'm hoping to get at least one 2.1x 60'. If I do, then I'm pretty sure I'll see 13.5. However, I can't shift 1-2 as fast as I usually would because otherwise my clutch will slip (most of the time). There are few times where it doesn't, but rarely. 2-3 and 3-4 are fine though for the most part.

I am going to try to do the check valve delete before the track and hopefully the UR pulley too. I expect a 103-104 trap speed. Honestly, even if I just run a 13.9, if my trap speeds are high then I will be happy and say oh well I'll launch better next time.

Oh, when I said jerky I meant under normal driving. I don't know how to check the mounts, but it shouldn't be as jerky as it is under normal driving. It's mostly when coming off the gas in 1st/2nd/3rd gear. It jerks forward more than it should.

2.15 is really good. If I manage a 2.15 60' I'll be very happy. I feel like I launch way better on the street, but hopefully it'll transfer to the track this time.

6000 boosted miles so far and no problems. Type F fluid and a big tranny cooler is definitely helping
