It has been raining every night, too. We should all go for the last T&T night.

Ive run several 13.1's at 106mph with just cobb stg 1 and drop in filter.

Stock I ran 14.1@96 i think.

I filmed a guy run a 12.7@106 with only jb4 e85 and dci's.

Hi all! Excited to see some 335's up on the hill. DA kills us here in the clouds. I hope to take the wive's new 335i up to bandi before the year is over... I'm guessing 14.0-14.5 in the 1/4 in stock form. Hopefully I'll be able to meet a few of you! I'll be in the black 402 stroker Trailblazer SS

I'd love to get some local input/expertise on tasteful mods... I know nothing about best brands, local tuners, etc...

Is a cobb stg 1 some kind of tuning software/programmer/chip?

I come from the Chevy/GM world where we use HP Tuners to tweak the PCM/TCM settings.

Cheers!
JD

Cobb is software calibration. It's pretty much a handheld unit.

I love the trailblazer ss. Always wanted one.

What is required to run e85 or race gas? Do you have a handheld tuner that you can use to adjust parameters? Is it something the PCM can adjust for automatically?

Yo, that 12.7 was me. E-85, JB4, DCI - everything else was stock, including the RFTs. The x-drive helps, a LOT! I live in Houston now though but check in here every once in a while to see what's up. Haven't had a chance to take it down to baytown, but expecting a roughly 12.2ish? As far as I know, there is no lower altitude track in the U.S. - so going from the highest to the lowest, lol.

I can make it if we have enough interests.

Craig, try e85 if you haven't already...

Lame! Tonight was fun, got 9 runs in! Was pretty hot though, so times were not the best, but still not too bad all things considering. I ran with about 6 gal. of 101octane and 1 gallon of 91octane, and threw on the R-compounds on the rear.

I did finally get below a 2.0 60'....1.987s 60', which got me a 12.898 ET. I had never gone below 2.0 60' before. My top MPH was 109.99, seriously, I wanted 110mph, but I guess you can't get any closer! Overall I am happy with the results considering the heat. DA ranged from 8900' to 8600' today!

Are any of you guys dynoed?I know big dick numbers don't mean much, but would like to hear a range with your mods. Our altitude is a different ball game than what everyone' else discusses.
