I was on kuhmo exta 295/30r19 and i couldnt get it to hook at all in either boost level but my best time was a low boost run at 8 psi and i ran a 12.00 at 122 trap. thats after about 12 runs.
That's not bad for street tires. Throw some drag radials on there and watch the times drop.

I picked up some cheap Cobra R knock off wheels for my Challenger for $100 each and some M&H drag radials. I shaved 8/10 of a second off my best 1/4 mile time the first time I used them over the 295/35/20 Nitto Invos I run on the street.

Yea I didnt really build this car for a drag strip queen I really did it for a daily driver and take it to a road course and run down those nice fansy vettes and high end cars. They **** a brick when I come flying by in the straights and the cant touch me in the curves. I have sways and coils too so the car handles just like it runs. Syncro rev is the **** with turbos!!!!! i down shift and when the throttle gets blipped those turbos are ready to come alive out of the curves.

Yeah, I built my Challenger to play around on the street and go to car shows, but it's too much power to turn loose anywhere but the track. Weighing 4300lbs it's not much of a road course car, but does the business at the drag strip with 600RWHP and 625RWTQ.

I wanna get the Z out to a road course. This thing handles like a go kart!

Any problems with your turbo setup at all?
