Not sure what the torque increase is with the AA catback tune. It may have less bottom end torque which would help ease the launch. The PROCede just makes a lot down real low, which is great if you can harness it. WalkedU's 1.7x on Nitto street tires is a testament to that. Track prep is such a huge factor. I am sure rflow can shed some light on it, but it looks to be a pretty good track. I am sure the So Cal guys will get hooked up and be in the 12s soon once they get to a decent track.

I had the same problem with an LSD to where I was spinning with slicks leaving with a transbrake. It hooked once, then the next pass it hooked again and sheered teeth off the ring gear and cracked the whole posi unit in half. I went to a spool after that.
Moroso is an okay track. The only problem is someone always oils the track and ruins the test and tune. I only got two passes last time out so I had to make them count. If i lean on the convertor some more it will get high 1.7's to 1.80. I don't see anybody getting 1.7's on street tires at Moroso. Just my 2 cents.
