Check the link in my signature for the TBI time registry, that should give you some idea as to what TBI can do with what.

my totally stock lo3 with 2.73 and an auto ran 18.4, though there's a LOT of reasons to doubt it, some of them being I was running on low air un-even bald tires, with a ton of extra weight in the car(stuff not people), and it was my first time out there. And thats just SOME of it, so i really wouldn't go by my time, i intend to go back out there and clear my name!

see sig for time.

Mods:

Hooker 3" cat-back
Cat delete
Open Element
Accel 8.8mm wires
Accel Cap/Rotor
+2* timing

Tires:

215/65/15 Potenza RE92's
(rears @ 24lbs)

the 15.8 ET was on a 2.456 60ft(at a bad traction track).

Car has the pegleg 2.73 non-posi rear-end. Car is definately capable of a 2.2 60ft. Guarantee when I run at a better track and advance timing to ~8* it'll come down and the car will be mid 15's.

Motor has 207,000kms

raising them will hurt traction.

It's in the sig. My 60' was 2.230 which I think is a little slow but I did a shallow stage so it could be helped maybe.

oh hey s!mon, i didn't see this until just now, but you should try going out to the track on a lower octane, try 91 or 89 or even 87, ill bet you you'll run better times.

100 octane is overkill unless you have a high, high compression cast-iron headed engine with a high degree advance.

hmmm. I felt the differnce (positive) after I filled my tank with this stuff! but I won't do it anymore: 1.23€/liter! that's definatley too much for me! now I fill in 95 or 98octane gas, because I will set the timing a little bit higher.
but thx and greetz

In a perfect setup, 89mph on a camaro should get you 15.7's if you get a good 60'
