    1st track day 11.0@130

    Took my ls m3 to the drags for the 1st time today. My 1st pass I left easy and shifted at 6k for a shake down pass. I got back in line to make a real pass and shift at 7k but my car died when I went to the line. Turns out my Holley ecu went bad. Talked to Holley and they are going to overnight a new ecu. I hope I get it in time for Mojave mile this Sunday. I think my car should run 10.5-10.6 @ 134mph with a good pass. Traction was very good for not using drag tires.

    Let me know when your rear end grenades I am hoping it will last a while. My goal is only 450whp with a Mild LS2.

    I think the diff will hold. I am going to put on a finned diff cover, the stock cover has been known to crack. I will also upgrade to driveshaftshop level 5 axles later.

    Holy sh*t!

    The intake sounds awesome! That car hauls some serious tail!

    What size tires are you running out back? What gearing?

    Holy crap thats it. I have 18x9's in the rear and I still had a hell of a time getting traction and im running Hankooks. Even then I was only running 420 or less to the wheels with a 3.91n lsd.
