i'll be hitting the track for the first time

what's up guys, im gonna try and go to the track wed at englishtown.
it will be my first time since my new set up and i don't know what to expect. i will be running a s/c with 11lbs of boost and a 30 shot of nitrous. now basically i can add up to a 100 shot but haven't tuned properly yet. i just want to test the basics of the set up with a low shot to get some sort of numbers and to use as a baseline. what do you guys think would be a good number to shoot for. also i'll be running with 18 in rims and my full stereo. this is to see what my everyday numbers would be and then next time i'll go back with 16 and slicks and full stereo out
to see how much of a difference it makes.if you want to check and see what i have check out my site. then i will post my outcome. im personally looking to get at least low 14 high 13's.

i tried waverider but it kept bogging down. i actually did a 14.6 when i used it. i only got three runs so i didn't want to waste it on trouble shooting i dont have a purge system and my bottle heater wasn't working. the bottle was at 700 psi i dont there was enough pressure to match the fuel output along with air in the line. matt from the org was there also he messed up his tranny on the first run with 75 shot. when i go back hopefully the nitrous will shave off some more time. even though the real problem is traction and my 60'. so until i conquer that more hp will just make things worse. my timeslip is on my hompage http://members.cardomain.com/whoamax.
P.S. once i tune her properly i will start hitting 50-75-100 shots
and say a prayer.
