    Went to Drag Strip today, Pictures Inside.

    Went to ATCO today, pretty nice day, not many people, got to run 3 times!

    First Run,
    14.926 at 93.66MPH

    Second Run,
    14.961 at 92.87MPH

    Third Run,
    15.007 at 92.46MPH

    Messed up third run because I forgot I lowered tire pressure, and it had better grip, so I launched little bit soft.

    I was running 4.5-5.0PSI

    Mods.
    T3 Turbo
    19lb Injectors
    Stock FPR
    FMIC
    2.5" Full Exhaust with Cat and Flow Master muffler.

    Here are some pictures!

      Excellent. It takes so little boost to make them pretty quick.

          geez. only high 14s and you're forced induction?

          im not trying to be rude, I would just have expected better nubmers

          i'm glad my e30 will be my quick, good handling car, and my other 2 vehicles are the fast ones

            i can't see too well cause it's kinda blurry. but are your 60' times in the mid to high 2s? (sorry if they're not, I just can't read too well). that may partially be the culprit

              Thanks!

              It's not bad, I was expecting low 15's because I'm running very lean, I have pretty accurate ATR A/F and shows everytime I step on it, and get in the power band, motor leans out pretty bad, and because of it, I have no top end but I ordered FMU, will tune it, and go back to the track again, and hopefully, I do better.

                On 17's I was pulling 60ft 2.279, like I said, without launching hard to avoid too much wheel spinning.

                Was running 4.5-5.0 PSI, and running very lean.

                      you should run around 28-20 psi on ur tires, no lower, unless u have drag radials.

                        I am pretty sure he meant his turbo was pushing 4.5-5 PSI.

                          Bet the times would be a little better if he was running 23psi to the turbo

                            I meant boost 4.5-5.0PSI, not tire pressure, I was running 25PSI in tires.

                              i was looking at your pictures and was staring at the tires expecting them to look like they had nails in them.
