I do the syty shuffle as well and works great. My ritual is to light the first beam before the other car and as soon as he lights his first one I light my second one. I quickly do the syty shuffle and then go 100% throttle until he stages and the lights come down. My best reaction time so far was .11 but I'm getting quicker at it. I normally leave on 6-7psi and cut 1.62 60' but I'm 4wd so I have a little advantage. If I don't do the syty shuffle I will push through the brakes around 1psi.

A 2-step would do the trick also.

Has anyone every installed a check valve in the line.
Not so. There is a compressed gas canister on the side of the hydroboost unit that stores compressed gas. By design, it is able to provide 3 full stops from 60mph. The larger canister can supply 5-6 full stops from 60mph.

I used the syty to get my 1.695 60' on factory 20's in 4hi with my stock 5.3, ZO6 cam and sts GT67. But I would break the first beam, then syty, and start to stall. VERY lightly PUMP the brake and you'll edge up enough to break your second beam. Then bury it and build more boost for the leave. I have left at 8 or 8+ lbs. and the same down the track. Never had front end limiters so it made for a wild 60'.

I tried it on the way to work and got 2 lbs out of it. Hopefully more at the track tonight! I am ready!!! Thanks for the advice guys.

I'd like to hear more about a 2step, but can't really find any info on doin one on a 4l65??

I bet a fresh brake job and a line lock would help me do the shuffle better since I am probably ruining my rear brakes doing burnouts w/out a line lock.

They work with any tranny.
Stand on the brakes. Engage the 2-step and floor the gas pedal. The engine will rev to preset rpm and stop there. Every other cylinder will have the spark cut off, causing fuel to be dumped into the exhaust. The raw fuel in the exhaust will ignite causing the turbo to spool. When you let off the brakes all cylinders will begin firing. I set mine at 3k and launch with about 6 psi.
