If you take the 60' from the tuned run and add it to the untuned run you'd be running a 14.8. A 2mph increase in trap does not mean 90whp no matter how you slice it. Is there some data logging happening on these runs? If the tuned version is really ripping out of the hole that much harder then hp is being pulled further down the track.

Looks like 15.4 to 14.6 to me. And yes, some have run as quickly as 14.4 stock. However, a lot of things go into the quarter mile time, so it's best to look at the improvements rather than the number. 0.8 in the quarter is a HUGE gain. Send that tuner to the guy running 14.4 stock and see what happens...

Track times mean nothing. Your MPH has everything to do with measuring HP increase. I got a feeling somebody was doing a bit of sandbagging the first run.

DA (density altitude) is very important when discussing track times. Without it, #'s are impossible to compare. My G8 could run mid-upper 12's with 0 DA and low 13's with 2,500+ DA.
i had this webpage on my smartphone and would check it @ the track. I was a junky.
