Default Dyno results

Just got my first dyno done today on my 2000 6spd coupe. Had just installed XS Power LTs/cats/x-pipe (thanks, Superman09 ),and BBK intake/TB. I know I could've made a better decision on the intake/TB, but am saving for a new house too, and the price was right. I also am running an AFE cai, and Borla straight pipes in the rear, but it's a bit noisy as expected, so I may go back to my B&B PRT.

Going to make a Joliet run sometime this summer, but after seeing a few posts, I may get a pair of drag tires on my spare wheels first. Am currently running Hankook V12 EVO K110 305/30 19 in the rear, but the drag tires would be on stock size 18x9.5 wheels. Hopefully, I can hit low 12s, though I don't know if I am being too overzealous.

Sorry, I should've asked what I was planning to: With just the bolt-ons, and the power I'm making, do I really need a set of drag tires? Or will what I have be sufficient? They hook up pretty well on the street. Am new to strip, but not to f***ing around in the streets.

Nice smooth torque curve in the mid RPM range.

Very nice! Extremely similar to mine after I did the exhaust but with a little more low-end grunt. With sticky tires you can see 11s, but it will be tough on street radials. Good luck!

Yep, got her tuned as well, though still wanting more, of course.
