this was on street tires at 35psi, and leaving the line at idle. i really could use some slicks. anything above 1500rpms blew the tires off. lol

Try running them at 13-19 psi (using a gauge made for low pressures)

do you lower your tire pressure on all your cars when at the track?

Nice dude! I can't wait to see more run results! My car sucked on street tires, too. lol

Most of the time, always with positive results. The Camaro went from 2.2 60' to 1.8 60'

nice im tryna break 13s with simple boltons. bone stock internals and no tune on street tires.

yea i can be done with alot of practice and the right conditions. The first time i had it tuned i had the stock b16 IM and a dented dc header(2" collector). It took me forever but i finally hit a 13.9@100 with 166whp. then i put the new header and IM on and made 175whp and i could run consistant 13.9-14.0 and could do it at 97mph. wait till it gets cooler and your times will drop some, especially with the intake like you have it. I wish mine would have weighed less than 2550lbs lol

lowering your air pressure on street tires arent really going to do much. If your seriously looking for a better result you need slicks.

On lower horsepower cars with decent street tires, it does a good bit. But, slicks > street tires.

Considering a srt4 with VERY minor bolt ons run 12's with a good driver and you were running 14.4 the last we checked... and you're not spraying or boosted still, I HIGHLY doubt you have anything for him.

not exaclty. it made a diffrence for me i went from 15.2 to 14.9 by lowering air pressure on street tires, guess it just depends

Agreed. 2.2-2.4 60' times seem to be the norm on street tires so you didn't do bad at all.
And lowering pressures on my street tires didn't help. I tried 25 psi, 30, and 32 with no difference.
