Default 1/8 e.t.

What in these trucks should you run in the 1/8 mile to get in the 14's in the 1/4? Our track is only 1/8 mile now. Only ran once last year with 500 miles on it and no mods went 9.90@73 nnbs rcsb with 3.42's. Now broken in with handheld tuner,AEM cai, and borla catback. Track opens sat. just hoping to run a little better.

9.6-9.7 1/8 mile is about 15.0 1/4 mile. 9.0ish is 14.0ish.

Somewhere between 9.0-9.7 is the 14's

if i was you i would get a custom tune and junk the handheld. you can get mail order tunes from the sponsors on the right wheatley or nelson both of them are very good. you will see a great improvement over what you have right now with a custom tune.

Good times. I was running 9.7s with a CAI, headers, cutout, and a shitty tune.

With a stock NNBS RCSB 5.3 4wd, what sort of 1/8 mile would you expect? Let's assume 3.73 gears.
