the 2.5 60 foot time is your problem, you have to learn how to launch it properly, you have to be aiming for about 2.0, if you can do that you will shave over a second of your time, and do a low 14!

so as the other guy said, lean to drive :lol:
that will be your best mod! 1 second gain, for zero dollars! :lol:

i normaly do a burnout then traction control on the in performance drive then stall it up and dump the brake if it wheel spins of the line you might want to look at dropping your tyre presures down to about 28psi keep the fronts at about 4o but and maby shave some waight run less fuel and no spare + tools will help every kilo less the better
just get the 4495's what you loose down low you will smash it up top if it wheel spins of the bat you don't realy need any more low down power
have you taken the restrictor out of the intake?

i would be going down to 20 psi, that has worked best for me...
as brad said, run 1/4-1/2 tank of fuel, no spare, no jack, no tools, take out anything that doesnt need to be there...

small burnout to flick the water and rocks off the tyres and get a little heat into them. and pop your bonnet between runs to let the engine cool...

practice a couple of launches on the street, if you can get it taking off on the street, youll be able to make it stick at the track... (you can give it a few more revs at the track)

start loosing weight..
strip the car of weight you don't need.
use lightweight thin tires on the front. use thin semi slicks on the rear, with semi slicks you got plenty of grip so you dont need to go to thick with the times your running.
remove the spoiler if you haven't already.
perfect you techniques and driving skills

over half a second is ALOT of time to gain when the car is already pushing times that are beyond expectation...

race fuel with new tune, slicks, weight reduction = slight chance
you couldnt do it in street trim...

Awesome times dude! Pretty sure iv seen your car around penrith a few times aswell. I'm local to the Penrith Area aswell and will defiantly be hitting up the tuner you used :p are you able to tell me where you got the headers and cat from? Been meaning to have the headers and cat done for a while now but wasn't sure if the power gains were worth the cost - but after seeing this, 200 + rwkw is defiantly something to smile about :) only issue il think Il has is the dual exhUst as I already have a stainless steel hi tech unit from the cat back ( not sure if this can be modded to be a dual set up) grats again on the figures dude!
