honestly the car would probably react better to more timing rather than more boost. timing is VERY LOW all the way across the powerband… heres my basetiming plus dynamic advance tables (total timing)

this first graph was timing as it was set by seth at moon…

if you notice he just smoothed out the timing load cells. mainly in the highlighted areas… and adjusted low load high rpm timing areas to get rid of shift knock…

When you make a lot of power, axles tend to become less of a requirement as everyone may think because you spin a lot more. If he was running drag radials, he wouldn’t have snapped one axle the whole night. A lot of power is fine for stock axles… A lot of power AND traction, is not.

I don’t anyone told him much considering I was the one who sold them the axles that snapped and exchanged them for him. I guess it’s kinda nice when your best friend pulls strings for you when you need them.
