Default What to expect, 1/4 time

Wondering what I should expect to run in the 1/4 with these mods. 08 SD AWD on 20's, stock except for MIT w/ Amsoil filter and a BB tune.

Slower than I expected, AWD slowing it down?

Good to know, any opinions on a t stat? I noticed on the 6.2 track time thread that someone put down a 14.27 with the same mods as mine + a t stat. I always heard that they are snake oil, maybe not???

You actually lose power by running at cooler water temp in STOCK CONFIGURATION. I personally run a 180 T-Stat but I have completely different ring gaps/power adders.

A stock engine needs a water temp around 195-205 to be at optimum performance.
