Slicks remounted on a new set of 15x8 wheels with a proper fitment. These actually fit completely in the wheel well. They are Team Dynamic Pro Race 1.2. They don't exactly match my black Kazera KZP's, but certainly better than a typical chrome set of drag wheels.

Well I had a great time at the track today, even though not everything just fell into place as I had hoped.
The first run was on low boost and pretty smooth. I ran a 12.89 @ 107.5mph with a 2.01 60'.
The second run I flipped on the high boost and popped an intercooler coupler.
Third run was on high boost but it was breaking up again in the upper RPM, and thus didn't run any faster. After this I switched to a 3 step colder plug gapped at around .019.
The next run I popped the same coupler.
I was finally rewarded with a 12.43 @ 115 mph but a crappy 2.1 60' from getting the slicks too hot, but shifting at 7K RPM while still watching for the high RPM breakup. I think this was about 20psi. I can't recall at the moment.
After a cool down my last run was on the low boost (~16psi) and my cleanest of the day. 1.84 60' for a 12.51 @ 109mph. I actually meant to run higher boost but forgot to flip the switch!
Overall it was a learning experience for sure. I do believe I'm going to step down to a GTX3071R or equivalent and sell the big 3082R. I don't really care for he 5K+ power band, and I don't think it's a good match for this motor. I want to get back to a 4K+ power band. Today I really regretted selling the 2871R, as I think it was faster with that turbo up to 7K RPM.
I did not get the chance to rev it to 8K after putting in the colder plugs. It may have had 120mph in it; I'm not sure. It definitely has 11's as it sits. Too many variables to play with and not enough time in just one day.
My "first day out" goal today was 12.5, and I hit that at just 109mph, so I'm calling that a win. Hitting 115mph was just icing on the cake.
Also I pulled no weight except the spare tire. I actually ran with a trailer hitch on the back because I hauled my slicks on a cargo carrier.
I need to get a smaller wheel/combo tire for the rear. Those 17x7.5 wheels and 235/40-17 tires are like anchors at the track.

Here's an in-car video of the 12.43 at 115mph pass. It popped an intercooler pipe at the end of the run.

It is asking me to sign in to see the vid. Do you need to share it or something?
