So I made it out to the strip today for a few runs. Keep in mind, the physical altitude if this track is over 4800' and the DA was around 7000'. Typically I pick up about 6-7 tenths when I get down to sea level so would be in the mid 11's 
. This was with about 165-185 kPa or 10-13 psi of boost at sea level. Boost would get progressively higher with each gear. I think I need a stiffer wg spring to keep it consistent. Also have pretty bad traction issues with boosted launches off the line even with 4x4, 
60' 1.77
330' 5.00
1/8 7.7722
1/8 mph 87.69
1/4 12.2147
1/4 mph 110.48
I was happy with that,

PMI is the same 4900' elevation as Douglas. 110MPH is enough MPH for 11.70's if you can 60'.

Yeah tell me about it! I'm coasting the last 200 ft of the track because of "issues" 
and I'm still trapping at 110 mph w/ a 2.7 sec 60'. I can't read time slips as well as most of you guys but I was thinking his trap speed would also be higher. 
Nice runs Kyle, what were your times in AZ?

I think its the evelvation, it kills the HP. I made 3 runs and all of them were at 110. Last year with the 4.8, I ran a 13.25@105 up here and when to Phoenix with the same setup and ran a 12.60 @ 107. I think the small .68 A/R housing on this T70 is killing the higher rpm. I tried dropping the shifts down a couple hundred rpm, but it wouldn't shift where I told it to. Shifted 1st at 5900 and second at 5950 when it should have shifted second at 5800.
J, I'd like to come down, but I don't think I can swing the gas money to drive all the way down there right now. Things have been a little slow for me, but I'm working on some stuff to help that. I will keep it in mind though...
