Forget about using factory Pirellis, PS4S worked ok but needed burounts and were inconsistent, now i switched to Michelin Pilot AS3+ which are an all season tire and work good but car still spins a ton. Because of spin it will short shift 1-2 shift and 2-3 shift.
on a side note how much boost are fast JB4 cars running that go 10.0-10.1 .... you guys have been doing it for a while so im curious whats everyone's comfort boost levels are.

I think I'm the only one running 10.0-10.1 so I'm not sure what the others are running. I know most guys feel comfortable with map2 or 3 on race fuel or e30 which is an additive map of +5lbs. I use mainly map6 (1/4 mile runs) which is also additive at +6lbs. Theoretically map5 and map7 which are absolute target based should push the same or more but I haven't played with them at all. I see no difference from map2 to map3 and map2 on a decent night is 10.15.
I always thought it was dry here in CA. I never paid much attention until recently. I feel your pain with the humidity. My DA is always around +2000 and when I finally get a night that is going to in the high 40 degree range my tail starts wagging and I get all excited only to look and see the humidity is 87% lol
