Just slap some 255/35/18 Dulop Direzzia Z1 STAR spec tires on it and you'll have traction... Unfortunaetly the best Drag radial on the planet (BFg's) dont get made in a 18" size smaller than 275/35 which would fit a 9" wheel on the bottom end and upto a 11" wheel on top....
I've had many other seriously high powered cars (Over 700+ hp) 2000 model mustang to a 2007 Vet Z06 and tried every street legal drag tire and the BFG's have earned the nickname "Axle snappers" for a reason!!!! They bit harder than anything else.... MT ET streets are to close to a slick for me to state it here... Not a good tire for driving on daily... The BFG is a daily driver tire though. I put these STAR Spec tires on a couple cars for longer tread life and they are hands down the next best sticky street tire I'd recommend... |

Now with the extra hp it spins alot more, so next im gonna spend some time trying to use the l/c to lauch the car under boost like at 2500. with the DTC on the car moves forward a couple of feet and the car takes off i guess i dosent feel like lag more like a hesitation what ever it is it kills your 1/4mile time some

Yep I feel your pain same thing happened to me. If you don't use LC thats what happens. I am not sure if the computer is just cutting power or not engaging the clutch or both. Annoying either way. I hope to hear you find the sweet spot with the LC and get it into the 12's.
