I think that most of our cars are at the point where no gains will be had until you start fixing the fuel issues. Those of us that do not live in the desert at 3000 feet are going lean with less mods than you have.
Except he has the LET 181 and not an ASP 178 which has no fueling issues. Also who knows what damage running lean may have caused. Many of you are running WOT while being lean, over and over while trying to fix the issue. That can't be good. Bigger is not always better. Just look over on Mbworld and see all the problems the E55 guys are running into pushing the envelope. There's a safe way and there's a cheaper way.
My point was don't take away or add to what Rob set out and you will be in the 11's. Even easier if your not at 3000'. Remember I traveled to Famoso which has the track at approx 635' with DA around 1600' that day and still didn't lean. At famoso ran 11.89 with a single NW cai that were the original ones that weren't teflon coated. The same with the mani's. I sent the mani's back and upgraded to the dual NW cai that were teflon coated and ran 11.86 here in AZ. That DA was closer to 1400', and still way safe and way, way below the AFR's the other tuner tuned cars were posting and without meth or nos. Members have tried the SL55 intake, SC pulley, copy cat mani's, cheap DR's, and other stuff that didn't work. I know it's boring to not be original, but if getting to 11's is the goal then don't reinvent the wheel. It just takes money. For those that don't have the money then do what my buddy with a black SRT6 did. Here is what he has ASP 178, single NW, InMotion tune, Hoosiers and 30 shot of Nos gets him 11.7's regularly. Now both of us can drive, so that makes a difference. Practice before running all out for safety sake.
I am due to run at Sacramento for the division finals this September. I fully expect close to sea level DA, then I can put this leaning to rest and hopefully crack 11.7's or maybe 11.6's.
Most important if any of you are going to mod, make the Zeitronix Zt-2 your first investment. Protect your motor because not everyone will.
I'll check back in after Sac and give an update.
