you dont really have enough mods to push that time, it wont do anything to your motor to go next weekend, if you ran everyday, then it'd be a different story.
anyway, keep practicing, changing shift points, launch speeds, etc to try and better that 15.9, good luck.

I would guess that your car would be capable of about a 15.3 with your current mods. Depending on how many miles you have on your car, you might consider getting a valve adjustment. It is surprising how much general maintenance can do for your engine. Every little bit helps.

Keep practicing the launches and just run a compression check every now and then. 15.5 could well be attainable. Good luck with it :smile:
