See Rich's post?

Rich Schreiner I made the move some time back to CHANGE tuners, and I knew within 1-week of dealing with Torrie, I MADE ONE OF THE BEST DECISIONS. To Torries credit....This car has way more in it, I weigh 265lbs and there was a 20MPH head wind.and STOCK cat. back exhaust.. I could not believe it went 116MPH. If you are on the fence on a company to use for your tune, YOU WILL NOT BEAT THE PERSONAL ATTENTION AND RESULTS YOU WILL GET WITH UNLEASHED. I have pretty much your normal mods. 93 octane ,downpipes/ water/meth, stock turbo's, and stock exhaust, my next move is a good Cat. back system. AGAIN... Thank you UNLEASHED Tuning, I'm a customer for life, no matter what car I own.

His car is definitely going into the 11's soon.  Rich is a huge guy (built), lol. 
 
Great times Rich,maybe that wind was in your favor,lol ;) ,hopefully we can meet up next time and congrats.
 
Sorry for the late reply guy's, Yes I was def. very happy with Torrie yesterday to say the least. It was a nice cold night 42-44 degrees, but 20mph dead head wind was killing me,and crappy barometer. it's never windy at night, but a storm was moving out of the area. Yea, I'm 6-3 265lbs and went the 12.14, and spun the tires off the line and when it shifted, so 2nd run I brought the RPM from 2400 to 2000 trying to see if maybe the car would like it and hook better, but no good, lost 60 foot time and went a 12.18. I will continue to work with TORRIE / UNLEASHED, and I promise, I want to be the 1st SHO in the 11's WITHOUT upgraded Turbo's. I have to start with doing my homework to get this car to dead hook, and get me a Cat. Back Exhaust system,hell I might even go on a diet...LOL    TO BE CONTINUED.....
 
Lose some weight ... that's commitment :D  Interesting your higher RPM launch worked better, sounds more like a stock scenario.  Update your sig, you blew your old PB away!
 
Might just need a bit warmer surface combined with a great prep day.

Best of luck on hitting that elusive 11 second bracket. 11 second land yachts give me goose bumps!!!

I think the Eagle F1'S summer tires played a prominent role during 0-60 launch based on the colder weather causing traction issues,we sometimes overlook our tires and and our only objective is cooler weather=lower IAT=BETTER ET,there are so many variabes to consider as to the type of tire to use on the track.

Lose that K&N and I bet you'll have an 11 second car.

Great times!

I have been reading your post's on the extensive testing you have been doing with the CAI.  AWESOME job by the way. I thought about that a lot in the last week or so, and I was thinking of changing the K&N with a Airaid, but when Ireally thought about it, I didnt think taking out the K&N during this cold air, and having the engine cool, and only going down the 1/4 mile would make ANY difference, especially when it's cold out. Any thoughts on that?
 
Damn I should have went with torrie I have 2014 and have livernois tune downpipe full exhaust meth kit basically everything you have and the best I could get is 12.5 and most of my runs have been 12.6 and 12.7! I know livernois hasn't got any of the 13 or 14 Shos in the 12.2. Very dissapointed in the money I spent with the money I spent with livernois for there meth kit and only pick up 2 tenth in the quarter mile!
