Its how the car is set up, supporting mods or not, you have to have them work together to get them to work, you have to have that one launch where everything goes right. I have not been able to repeat it, hell I can barely get under 12.9 most of the time, but it hooked, I went and the end result was spectacular. The Vortech unit is capable of much more, it is used in V8 cars producing much more HP and boost than me. Its all good. Fuel and tune are just obstacles to be overcome and dealt with. if a nitrous car can get to a 11.8 or a 12.0 with a 125 shot, why wouldn't it be possible with boost making more HP than that.

Completely believable in my book.... I've been saying for a long time, that these SC or TC cars need to be low 12s...
Again, my 5000 pound, completely unaerodynamic Brick went 12.72... put that same setup in a 5th Gen and it would be like an 11.7.... so the thought that you ran a 12.17 isn't out of the realm of believable for me... even if it was a complete hero run... perfect weather, tail wind, car at perfect temp., etc...
