Ok - here's my incrementals on my timeslips. This was the first time I drove a TC down the 'strip. I tried to keep the car as stock as I could. Previous owner had already attached KN cone. FP died a month or 2 ago so put in the 255 HP and Kirban AFPR - set at stock levels. I also installed 2 - stage Gillis wired to fuel switch with high setting at 15psi. I got 3 runs in before it got rained out.

Overcast cold (temps in 50's) tire pressure at 34psi all around, about 18 gals. gas in tank.

run 1 - launched at 2500 - shifted at 5200 (wanted 4800 but watched the motorcycle in the other lane - it was one of those hiabusa - sp - bikes)

r/t - .878 sit & spin
60' - 2.537 spun more on 1 - 2 shift
330 - 6.993 got rubber on 2 - 3 shift as well
1/8 - 10.536 @ 70.53 mph
1000 - 13.565
1/4 - 16.123 @ 88.52 mph

run 2 - launched at 1600 and almost stalled the car, then massive quantities wheelspin. Better at shift points - need more seat time.

r/t - 1.088
60 - 2.702
330 - 7.163
1/8 - 10.696 @ 70.75
1000 - 13.713
1/4 - 16.261 @ 88.85

run 3 - luanched at 2000 still spun through most of first but did get out of the hole somewhat and only chirped on the 1 - 2 shift. Did best job of hitting shift points at 4800 - Keep missing that at the 1-2 shift though - golly it happens fast!

r/t - .578
60 - 2.524
330 - 6.876
1/8 - 10.366 @ 71.19
1000 - 13.384
1/4 - 15.919 @ 89.27

Oh and the bike from run 1 had these numbers
r/t .027
60 - 1.574
330 - 4.153
1/8 - 6.245 @ 117.69
1000 - 8.059
1/4 - 9.608 @ 145.32

Non TC I know, but amazing for a stock bike. I was reading his scoreboard before I was at half track and have no clue what rpm I shifted into 3rd at.

I think I have a few tenths in traction and a few tenths in getting the driver around. I still want to get more runs in before I do more to it as I don't really think my numbers are very close to what the car can do. I told coworkers that I thought mid 15's and I still think that's what the car has in it now.

15.9 isn't bad for how stock it is! I've raced 3-4 100% stone stock 87/88 TC 5-Speed's, and all were in the 16.2-3 range at 88 MPH. Those 60's are what's killing you. I bet if you can get a 2.3xx there's a 15.4 in there. Good work!

You could pull a 2.0 60ft with enough practice! I did on some really old tires and a 160k mile clutch.

I have found with my 88tc it is easyier to stall the engine up to about 3,500 or 4000 then slowly release the clutch and at the same time apply more gas then when you feel it start to pull fully let off the clutch and haul ass lol. The first time i did that it pulled HARD!!! and i'm still only running 10 lbs of boost
88TC - Stinger 3" DP, 3" single dynomax bullet,31x12x4 FMIC 3" alum pipe, fakie Turbo XS bov, 255lph walbro and Turbosmart boost controller running 15lbs
