Stock, you probably wont be able to cut it down. That's, uh, about a perfect fun for bone stock. Honestly, I have to kinda squint a bit when your first timeslips match guys from Car & Driver. But hey, more power to ya. Beginner's luck? ... maybe you're just a natural!

Most guys I know with some minimal start mods (no resonator, exhaust, maybe MBC) get 60fts of low 1.9's and some squeak into 1.8x.

Wow, did I read your original post wrong. I saw your R/T as your 60ft. Ooops, sorry.

So your 60ft is 2.0. I Almost fully dump the clutch at about 4000-5000RPM to get 1.90 60fts.

The Car & Driver guys usually do *****-out tactics to get their results... like full on dump at close to redline

I held it at 5000 rpm's when the tree counted down to get the rpms high on the turbo but the pressure doesn't build unless its floored so before the last yellow light i let off, then floored and dumped it right before green.

R/T 0.50
60' 1.799
1/8 9.086
1/8 mph 74.39
