Re: Trying to get into 12s
Just remember, getting into the 12's isnt too hard considering these are 13.1 second STOCK vehicles

Re: Trying to get into 12s
These guys are right. It ALL depends on how much boost you run, what octane fuel you use, and how good your tune is. Way more so than the mods you have, believe it or not!! This site has all the information you need, if you are willing to invest the time to read up and search for it..
I bought a stock Syclone that turned 14.4's, and turned it into 13.0's with no parts, and then 12.2s with only a few hundred dollars of parts.
With the parts you have, if it doesn't run 12s on pump gas and 15 PSI, there's something wrong.

Re: Trying to get into 12s
you can do it yourself, its easy and youll need the practice working on your truck, they seem to need it often! but its rewarding when they are right! may i recomend the following to you... new cap and rotor w/ coppor terminals. 8mm silicon plug wires, ngk ur5 stock # 2771 spark plugs gap @ .30, fuel filter, remove cat, and just make sure the intercooler pump is working. learn to launch it hard and i would bet 12.50s or better along with the mods you have now!!! :tup:

Re: Trying to get into 12s
I only had boost spike on the shift when I removed the cat,had a few degrees of knock retard at those shift points.
I would not recommend running it in 4th gear & punch it having it drop down to 2nd gear or so,then you might get too much of a spike.
Not a big problem for me with a stock non ported turbo.
At the time I was running 18-19 PSi of boost pressure & would boost spike to 20-21 PSI then go right back down to the 18-19 psi (after the shift) range w/my Pitbull chip

X2 or TR plugs... UR5 are for stock heads. You need TR5 or TR6 for vortecs. Other than that you should be into the 12s with a proper tune :tup:
