Post New best time with new mods

Last run before mods was a 12.7 at 106.7. Installed JL's new program on Diablo Chip, JL Power Cooler, PSP Lower Pulley, and Single Blade Throttle Body. New times today were 12.423 at 109.62 and 12.44 at 109.84.

These runs were in full trim.

Two brand new LS-1 Vettes were running 14.1 and 13.4's. A bunch of LS1 F-Bodies didn't break 12's. An LT1 Firebird was hitting high 12's. The rest were either not worth mentioning or race cars. Had a blast blowing them away. My dad heard a bunch of people saying "I can't believe that truck went that fast!".

Great runs, soooo close to 110 mph.
Do you have any thoughts on the JL Powercooler? How much do you think that helped? Thanks
Dale

99svt...

Have you run a JL chip before the newest Diablo chip? Just wondering if you could give me a comparison if you had his older program.

Also, are these runs with ET Streets/ET Drags, or just regular F1s?

Good job, and thanks for any info you can provide!

Bad as L,
I believe the PowerCooler helped tremendously. Getting cold air to the blower is the key. I think of it as a standard mod to get you in the low 12's.

WA 2 Fast,
I had JL's SuperChip before the Diablo. I feel JL is putting alot of R&D into the new chip and you'll see gains with his new programs.

JL,
I was the only Lightning there...no competition. ;-)
