Um, 1/4 ET to zero if I stack enough chips and tuners?

Talking Um, 1/4 ET to zero if I stack enough chips and tuners?

If a SCMT or Predator will drop the 1/4 mi ET from ~16 s to ~14 seconds, will stacking another seven chips and/or tuners drop my ET to zero?

Oh, and will my EGT be OK or should I run a pyrometer?

I'd recommend just 1 and a pyro to start before you start dumping $$$ on boxes.

i think your math is correct...just dont use more than seven because you might start going back in time, and that brings up all kinds of new problems

Back in time?...Hmmm...there was this girl back in a galaxy far, far, away...
...No, come to think of it...at my age it would take to many boxes / programmers. Budget not big enough. Already in deficit spending with the one I got.

Nevermind.

Wink 1/4

With a Predator, Superchip, Edge Attitude, Banks Sixgun with turbo-back and a small JATO bottle along with the stock afterburner, you should hit the finish line at least 5 seconds before you start. You will be able to critique your run.

i put nitrous, propane, 6 chips, water/methanol, 44" swampers on my truck and a fifth of captian for me and i beat that last weak. aaahhh aaaahhh aahh, and i can prove it one week from never. the only problem so far is raw fuel dumping out the exhaust.
