Why are my quarter mile times so bad?

controllerplus · 07-22-2019, 07:09 AM

recently went to the track. I'm full bolt on, everything including 5" arm fmic, stage 2 fuel pump, etc. mhd stage 2+ e30 map. precision racework coils and 2 step colder spark plug (pure stage 2 being installed in 3 weeks).

I ran 13.3 with just jb4 ONLY last year. got all the parts for full bolt on and I'm only getting 13's.. 12.9 at best. I was hoping at least mid 12's with everything done? what the heck is going on?

thanks. f30 335i

Do you have a time slip? It would help to elaborate some possible reasons.

Is your traction control on? All those mods and you didn't list tires? Are they warm? How's your reaction time?

1000hp 600ft-lb on all seasons will get you an awful time.
