Eh. Your car sucks, but you've got a good attitude. When you stuff a turbo underhood, you'll have 1,001 friends here.

My pretty much stock car ran a 15.7 w/ a decent launch lol. Dont remeber 60ft. That was also my first time in a fwd stick at the track, besides when I was ------- around in a Festiva at a F-body meet at Norwalk hehe (I have pics ;D). Wheelspin sucks ass!

Eh, never went to the track N/A, but it's going to be TOTALLY different with a turbo. Still gets you an idea, but turbo cars are driven different then underpowered N/As. Sorry, but that 60' is pretty bad. My buddy (who I think is a REALLY good driver) jumped in a Z6 Si hatch and first time pulled out a 15.9 with a 2.3 60'. I STILL can't get over, I think JD's story, of 195/70/13 all seasons with a 1.9 60'. I got a 2.3 on winters, so I have a while to go. :y

I pulled a 2.2 with some bald kumho 205/40/16's with heavy ass motegi wheels my first time at the track. I've got a swap though, but 2.8 seems ridiculous.

100 octane will make less power, if you don't make any timing changes, you sir are tard :1 for thinking that higher octane automatically makes more power

Well everyone I went back to the track today and had a lil better time .......a 2.4 60 foot , .102 reaction time and a still slow 17.0 at 80 mph , again im new to the track that why i was out ther I am learning how run on the track , and I know its slow but I had fun , as far as the octane subject , Im not saying its making a huge difference but it does make some , either way it wont be like picking up the turbo next weekend , Im loking forward to getting it set up. I did beat a a 06 EX by 2 seconds though lol not saying much but it made me feel good.
take it easy guys ,
