Default First Time @ The Track with TBSS

Previous experience at the track was with a fwd 04 Impala SS pushing 400hp on street tires running low 13's with 2.3+ 60's

TBSS has boltons in the sig and a tune from pcm4less which I back the timing a little off of to completely eliminate kr.

Keep in mind I'd this was my first time with radials so my first launch sucked, 2.1 60' 13.96 @98

2nd run I got them warmed up better picked a good light time and had a .021 r/t 1.921 60' and 13.740 @98

last run was an elim run, dialed 13.8 because i hooked up so well the previous run, .079 r/t 1.916 60' 13.734 @94 because I felt like I hooked up again and didn't want to break out so I let off the gas at the end. Still broke out and lost Probably would've been a 13.6xx had I kept on it.

Does this seem decent with bolt ons, trans and tc given the elevation here?

Hey my Idaho buddy,
Was this as Firebird? Let me know when you're racing, I'll have to come out and see. I'll take it to the track once I get some bolt-ons and tune.

Not sure if this is a 'decent' run or not, but how much of your sig is coming soon? Are the heads and cam already installed?

Also, how long did it take PCM to return your ECM/TCU out here (Idaho)?

Good luck and happy modding!

Right on. Yep this was Firebird. There were two other TBSS's out there last night. We've got room in our club if you ever want to give it a shot, even stock it's still fun.

It only has the 4" fwi, headers, fans, trans/conv right now. h/c/i/turbo are all sitting in boxes in the garage, lol. Hopefully I can get them on within the next month.

PCM wasn't mailed because I have HPTuners. They emailed everything. Super fast turnaround on everything with pcm4less I've gotten.

Not bad for that DA. My first time at the track I ran 13.69's, in cold good air. After removing the back seat, spare and some little tricks here and there I ended up where I'm at now.
