It's not that it's difficult but they would be the best way to go about it. That way if you should run into any issues they would be able to clear things up for you.

Good luck!

Both. The SCT handheld will plug into the OBD II port, then they USB cable connects the handheld to the laptop. You'll need to download live link. That's the program you use to log. JRE can tell you what pids(parameters) they want you to set up. Once it's set up all you have to do is start/stop and save. You only need to set it up once.

Yeah, of course I know. I have my own file in teds laptop with almost 400 logs.

Your 1/8th, nothing special going on there... You should be like 88 MPH or more I would say. I think I was 89mph with the same parts and MPH in the 111-112 range last year.

The car either had shitty gas or bad heat soak.

With those mods minus the radials I went 12.4 at 113, 1.89. He won't be that fast in 1600 air but he'd be 12.7's at 110 I'd think.

Yea it's missing something.

Sounds like it's pulling timing for some reason. Either heat, gas, or possibly you have a header or something touching the frame causing knock retard.

Your car should easily run mid to high 12's. Juice2ss ran 12.6 with almost your exact same mods with 2800 DA. and mine ran 12.1 on that same Hot muggy day with a crap 60ft. I'm running a converter and MT tho.

Headers aren't touching anything. Let the car sit between most runs. I hot lapped it once or twice. But on the all I let it rest in between. And if I was siting in the lanes for longer than a few minutes I shut it down and opened the hood.

FYI shutting the car off in stagging is one of the worst things you can do. All you do is help the car get heat soaked. You kill the fans and all the fluid stops moving and is encased in a metal tomb. You can open the hood but keep the car on so the fans move the air and the fluids are getting as cool as possible.

You'll be able to see just how heat soaked you car gets once you log.

Hopefully the log will show something that will identify the issue. Could be lots of things.

Exactly. What the OP doesn't need is a bunch of Internet tuners speculating on what's wrong. Get with Ted, get a log, and go from there.
