I know WalkedU runs a boost gauge and posted his boost was around 12 psi once he got things running right with a stage 0 PROcede map. So if the PROcede doesn't allow the car to dial in the additional boost, then both the PROcede and stock 335i would be running the same boost at elevation, basically explaining the close times. The 60 foots seemed close too, so I don't think that traction was a big difference. And I am assuming most of the guys that ran are pretty good drag racers.
I wonder if any of the PROceded guys had a boost gauge? If so, you would expect to see 3 psi more than they were seeing at sea level, or around 15 psi. If they were still seeing 12psi, then at that elevation/DA, the PROcede wasn't doing any more than the stock ECU can do.
I know SHiv mentioned testing at high elevation, so maybe he can chime in as to whether or not the PROceded cars will still add in that additional 0.2 bar at elevation.

Good points Bro, that very well could be.
EDIT, wrong ET info before.
** There was only 1 stock 335I there that I knew of, white one, but Warren's car (Socal335I) did trap 105 so he was running good at that DA trap wise, compared to the 107 trap that driver72 did at Famoso. I think the ET's were somewhat close between the stock car and xede/procede cars, but the traps were a bit better of course on the xede/procede cars.
But you also have to take into account that the 335I's were running the same times, or better that some Stage 3 S4's were running!
We know what the 335I can trap at sea level, Shiv hit 111 MPH, time for a customer car to hit that! Charlie and Sherwin you guys up for Sac?
