12.6 @ 106 mph
Finally broke the 13 second barrier on Sunday. Did 2 runs with the 100 shot, the other was a 12.7.
What was more interesting was my first run with a 35 shot. Pulled off a 13.4 @ 99.
N/A with full street trim and tires netted a 15.4 same as last year but didn't get a chance to try it with the slicks etc but should be able to get a little quicker. Will try this Sunday we have another import race. Got a 15.1 with the 35 shot in street trim it just lit up the tires.
Also got a .506 reaction time with the 12.6 which is my best as well.
Have a few more lightening things to do which should net another .1 or .2 and plan on trying a higher shot as well when I am sure everything is setup properly.
However it turns out I am a lousy racer, first round of eliminations and I red lighted, first race jitters I hope.
Ben, you are right the 95 is faster.
PS Don't worry Matt I am a long way from your doorstep yet.
Also thanks to my Son for taking the video and helping me remember what switches to turn on and off. My doors will probably feel him coming when he gets that Talon on the track next month. Tnx Jimmy

That run was a 1.88 but the 12.7 run was a 1.83 so I am hoping to possibly hit a high 1.7 but they don't come easy.

man this makes me want an NX kit... I have the exact same slicks as you already. Now wondering what I would run with your setup

PS My slicks are now 4 years old and my Son gave them to me after 2 years on his VR6.

Exhaust, intake, UDP, slicks, NX, Drop resistor mod, trans cooler, S-AFC II.
BTW The video now works but pay no attention to the commentator he got a little excited because his Dad is faster than him.

N/A it should run mid 14's no problem with slicks, but we'll see what happens next weekend.
Now I just gotta get my Dad to help me with my car and lay off his own so I have a chance to keep up...

Relay mod is good for 20hp to the wheels! =) But really. You car sounds MEAN! Which intake/exhaust combo is that? You car sounds higher pitched than most VQs I hear.

Hey Zum I used your relay idea to do it too and its sweet. I like KISS (keep it simple stupid) I need it simple. Less to remember.

Also went to dyno a week ago and it pulled 268 HP with the 100 HP shot. Difficult to dyno because its auto, can't nail it until over 4500 or it will downshift and mess up the dyno and at that time I still had the limiter connected and it hit 115 mph at around 5800 so not much of a graph.
I also had to hit the nitrous at part throttle on the dyno (can't do that with a WOT switch) to keep it from downshifting to even get it to 4500. The A/F was hooked up so I watched it VERY close. Auto's are not very compatible with dynos they just like the track.
Zumble, the intake is somewhat of a homegrown Bomz and the exhaust is Budget all the way with a Vibrant muffler which I just put on at the track. Its straight through and too noisy for highway driving.
