Default 12.96 @ 104.9 on a .050 jet, dry

Sport's 12.96 @ 104.9

Modifications:
5.3L - stock
A4 - stock
HP Tuners
.050 dry shot (100)
640psi bottle
MT 255/50 ETs
Intake mods
Headers w/ full exhaust
KP 4 link w/ QA1s

I don't know if the 4 link is helping or not 'yet'. I had no wheel spin what-so-ever but, that could just be the tires fault. We'll see once I get some more power to the ground.

Oh yeah... also.
I had the shocks set at 7 clicks so, I wasn't necessarily 'babying' it out of the hole. The time in my signature was my quickest 60' (1.86) and this was a direct hit out of the hole with 0 tire spin.
Just some info I thought I'd throw in.

Later.

UnderR8ed,

I'll get pics up ASAP.

Details on the setup... Where to start.
First of all, it's a KP components unit, converted to coil-overs instead of bags for a more 'race' oriented setup. As I have kinda hinted to, I don't really know how much better this is than your typical leaf spring + cal-trac setup.

12'' Spring/Shock combo.
I got the spring lb/in. set pretty light. I probably have less towing 'capabilities' than your early-model, NBS Lightning. (Didn't they bump the tow rating later on?) ... anyways.

Very adjustable as far as ride height goes. You'll get a glimpse of this from the pictures I'm about to host.

Tuning adjustments... Not very adjustable. Just got the shock settings. I leave it at 0 clicks for the street. Rides very well.
At the track, I start at 6-clicks and work from there.
