    So, turns out the car wasnt banging the limiter, it was shifting exactly when commanded. Spark was blowing out. running a bkr6e at .035 to try to stop fouling on street. well that has been causing spark blow out with the og delco opti and stock ignition system. scrambled to regap plugs to .027ish last night. set shift to 5700 to try to keep it from breaking up.

    -5700rpm shift point
    -275/40/17 et street r at 21psi
    -11psi was seen at 5700rpm
    -left on idle at half throttle, punched it at the 60ft, left lane

    1 pass and track said no no (11.49 and quicker needs a roll bar)

    i just want to thank everyone that has helped us over the years. yeah the car is fast, but never really knew how fast it was. i think its got a 10 in it. its still a street car through and through. but damn, its a freight train up top

    Ok there's more info here than you gave me on FB. Get an Ignition Box on the car (I had an Accel 300+ on my turbo car and it was fine......the Accel is a nice unit), raise the shift points back up, and yeah, there's 10's there if you can get it out of the hole.

    I don't believe that for a second. You realize how many LTx Fourth Gens have been run over the years without issue with an ignition box on them? Both cars I owned ALWAYS ran better with the box on the car.

    I ran an MSD 6AL box for years, with an MSD coil, no issues. What do you think of those tires?

    My camaro ran a simple 6al... once I had the delco opti on there, it was never an issue. I'm with @Fastbird on the ignition box... but I told u that in our other convo.
