So you are saying it's normal...even with the mods....dang?????? I wish I would have tried this when I was stock, so I could have compared it...
Sorry to say, but its not the car, its the driver.

How did you launch the car? With tip, you need to power brake, get on the gas, hold the brake, until the tires are just about to slip, and you are near boost, then launch, you'll shave those two seconds off in no time with a little practice. It wont hurt to do it once in a while, just dont do it all the time.

Thanks guys. One thing is for sure...the chip has made a huge difference in strength...I was just surprised by the less the stellar 0-60 time. Acetrebo - no need to be sorry about that...I would much rather it be driver error than a car problem. I didn't even launch it...just punched it.

This is exactly what I went through.

I got chipped and 1+, drove around, and was thinking how much better it was - how much stronger it was - especially out on the freeway.

Then i did a 0-60 test, and was like wtf?? - because the time was almost the same as before.

Experiment a little with how you guys launch, and see if that helps any.
It should help some.
rccks, you still have altitude to deal with, but I bet you can get her down to 9.
