Removing that passenger side seat and weather really net you 1/2 sec faster. Congrats!

12s in our cars are very realistic. Basic upgrades of I/H/E should put us high 12s on a regular basis. Weather and elevation definitely play a role, but overall our cars are very 12 worthy. I've seen many stock 350s running mid 13s.

For sure it help a lot but less than 1/2 second, i was running 13.40 before i install ppe header at 25 degree
I would say Passenger seat .10
Cold weather.10-.15

I dont think i can make a 12s run at 25degree

I have one last mod to try its the mapecu3
I have it at home now but not sure ill have time to tune it this year
The track is closing at the end of october

Will see if there is a few hp hidden somewhere in my car

If able, I'll try one last visit to the local 1/8th mile track this year and try removing some stuff and run < a quarter tank this time. Still running OEM exhaust and a SRI on "heavy" OEM wheels on street radials (PSS).

Great time! Your 60 foot time is very impressive. What rpm are you launching at, are you pedaling off the line? Or are you full throttle after initial launch? Are you doing any burnouts before you line up? I cant launch at more than about 1200 rpm before the tires break loose and my best 60 foot times are 2.02 w/ a 1/4 mile time of 13.122.
