Went out to the tracks friday night and ran the evil_eagle. Now since they bitched at me last time I was out and gave me my 1 and only warning about running 11's with no cage, I had no choice but to run low boost levels to keep it out of the 11's.
I spent about a good 4 hours dialing her in on the AFC and FPR among other things as well. Anyway, 1st run of the night was on 17lbs of boost, with a crap 60ft. time of a 2.0 I ran a 12.4 @116mph, 2nd pass I made no adjustments and got a better 60ft of a 1.868 and ran a 12.24@116mph.
Towards the end of the night, the temp outside got down to a cold 52 degrees out side, great for the innercooler, crap for traction. 3rd pass of the day I ran a 12.2 @111mph on the brakes hard the last 300ft. of the track, (bracket racing)
So after that run I decided that I was going to dial the car in alittle more on the AFC, so I wanted to turn the boost down and see what I could pull with it leaned out about 8% more then what it was. I had to fight the car to keep it out of the 11's on this run.
15lbs of boost I ran a 12.18@119mph on the brakes the last 100ft!!!

I think if I had the cage and turned her up to 26-30lbs of boost I could have hit mid 11's with no problems and well over 125mph.

Now That I have the car dialed in 90%more then I did when I ran that 11.95 @121mph last week I think the car is going to blitz a mid to low 11.

Just thought I would share this with everyone that it is possiable to run great times with low boost levels. Man I wish I would have had the car tuned in like this when I ran that 11.95 last week. Soon enough though I should have the cage in shortly.

Nice times and MPH Jake. I'm sure you are making some serious power. You have plans anytime soon for a cage? Go's to show you how much of a difference tuning can make.

Ya I'm getting the cage soon, just really short on cash right now with house payment, kids, food ect.

I just got done throwing another fan in the car, that should help alot with under hood temps and bring me alittle more timing and much more top end power, we will see.

Great results. What rpm do you launch at, and what rpm do you change gears at? i have a similar setup and would like some tips.
