I have both. They told me that the tazer would not turn on the street traction. It was a lie.
You just have to hit the srt button twice after and it will quickly put on your custom settings

I’m itching to get back but have to change oil change rear end and need cooler weather. Not going any faster consistent after about 10 passes, not trying to break anything either. Tire pressure from 19 psi to 15 psi. Leaving off idle and 800-1000rpm. Can’t get better than a 1.50 60’, 9.8 @ 142 pulling 3-4 degrees of timing up top due to heat. With better DA and a 3.09 car will go low 9s.

If I had a 55 tire it would probably be a different story they’re 1” taller than the 315/50, but I have the 50

Post your best slip, I understand you’re trying to drop your 60 to get to a 9, but if you take a tenth off the 60 that may be all you need, or you may need more mph on the back half. Once you get it to hook Jon can add some HP sooner in the run to add that mph. Just because you trap 134 now doesn’t mean that it won’t be higher once you start to hook… and the lower 60’ will reduce the ET, it’s a win win.

2.5 pulley is slowing you down I bet. Many have tested and below 2.75 it gets too hot. Your coolant tank may help but I'd be curious what IATs are like.
I have a 2.69 and it pulls 3-4 degrees of timing on the top end due to heat when hot out. With cooling mods it should boogie

until jon sees a data logged run we may never know. 134 mph is really low for the mods and with a 1.5 60 ft I would almost think it is running on 7 cylinders

You didn't answer if it is spinning or just not leaving hard

Exactly why I asked about the mph and showed those time slips where I ran high 9’s (we are yet to see the time slip to do the math). Sixty ft isn’t just about hooking up. You also need to have the power to accelerate and if there’s a issue then it’s going to show up from the top of that time slip to the final mph. I don’t see where the 134 mph number was shown. That isn’t all that strong for a modded e85 motor unless the da is real high. I think there’s more going on than just traction.

Well, we all know how important it is for Datalogs.

Also…. Those 9.85 times lips I showed were the first time on the track with only dyno tuning having taken place. The motor was a stock 2016 HC with the 2.4. +10 crank with a 2.65 running e85. Made 915whp. When I ran that 9.8 at 137 there was a noticeable shifting problem. It was short shifting to where it went right past 2nd gear. Afterwards the logs were reviewed and torque management was the problem. That was corrected and next pass was 145 mph. That’s what one of these should run with a pulley/e85 combo.
