Normal cars use the stock/ss factors.

Living in Florida we don't have elevation issues since the highest spot is like 343 ft above sea level but damn I didn't relize it made that much of a difference.

Turbos, and superchargers are less effected by altitude they only use ~half the factor. I think Im good for at least 10.20's though if everything holds together. Probably still take more turbo, or a shot of N20 to get it in the 9's.
