I ran a 12.85 at 111mph in the rocky mountains a few months ago (high elevation) I had a spun rod bearing at the time. I was running a pte 50 trim at around 25psi. My question is shouldnt my trap speed net better times? I also ran a 12.9 at 109mph that day. My 60ft times were in the 1.8 range (AWD) With my new motor i'm building should i expect possibly better times since i had a high trap speed or not? Thanks
 
trapping 109-111 is good for a low 12 in awd... whats your 60'?
 
Shifting quick will help lower those times. Do you lift off the throttle when you shift? If you do, the turbo needs a little time to spool up again. At high elevation a turbo will spool up even slower. If you don't lift when you shift the ET will drop.
