I used those calculators for my run two weeks ago which was uncorrected 12.61 @110.37 with 1.83 60' at 4742 DA and it said CORRECTED I "would" have ran an 11.85 @ 117.02.
My power mods at that time were 185pulley, LET phenolic intake spacers, SL55 complete intake with K&N drop ins, 1 step colder NGKs, E85 mix(almost all E85 with 3 gallons 91pump) on STOCK ECU........... and put it to the ground with Hoosier DRs and PG LSD.
Re: pulley's
You don't use the DA for that day but your tracks elevation. It figures the DA for you and adjust that according to your elevation. Figuring DA is used to predict what you will run on that given day. The fields have to be exact or the times can be up or down a bit.
The Strip is 2200' and even if was in the 60's temp wise, your still smoking fast.

I know it calculates its own stuff............I entered in all the info it asked for exactly as it was at the time of day I made that particular run. The ambient temp was 89* on that run...........but I did put the elevation as only 2100'..........I always forget whether it's 2200 or 2100 for some reason.

Re: pulley's
I had a chance to drive a car with a 185mm pulley yesterday! That thing whined like a f.... straight up race car. Very nice I was suprised that the whine was so much more than the 181mm, but I would say
nearly twice as loud in a good way, and off part throttle vs mid to full throttle. If these things can be kept cool their gonna be monsters.

I'm guessing that car had a needswings intake(or something similar)? I have SL55 setup and you can barely hear the s/c under WOT and inside the car.........outside it's just a quiet silver/blue blur going by. LOL

I love the sound of the s/c.................but I don't want joe blow to know what I've got under the hood until it's too late(and even then keep him wondering how he lost to a CROSSFIRE).
Re: pulley's
The car MDSRT6 is speaking of is mine. I have to work all weekend so I am not able to make it to the track. I told Jeff if he wants he can take it to the track and see if he can break into the 11's. I really hope he takes me up on my offer to take my car to the track because I'm thinking this might be the last weekend with decent weather for an 11 second run till fall. Its suppose to be in the mid 70's and not too humid this weekend in Maryland. I would really like to see an 11 second car without spray.

Re: pulley's
In all seriousness be careful. As you noticed it's a different monster with those mods, it's even tougher to harness that power on the street. You can call me old fashion, but I drive completely different on the street than the track. I got caught up one day and didn't realize how fast I was going and made a right turn flying, I'm just glad the car handles amazing otherwise I would eaten the car in the turn lane. I think I scared that person more than myself. I did have to change the shorts after though. LOL.
It will take MD a few runs to get used to your car as well. Keep us posted.
