Not bad. It's all possible if you go all out!! New IM, BBTB, better headers, better exhaust, cams, some tuning, and slicks and low 14s is very possible smile.gif

How much do you want for them? Are gt, ones that have equal design? Weren't people having lots of problems installing those???

I'm hoping for around $450. Never used, has the extra 02 bung already welded on.

Supposedly, the stock fan will fit, but it needs to be trimmed down a little. Also, one of the studs have to be filed down a little. Someone on here did it, so they could probably tell you what you gotta do.

 

hmmm. I'll wait until there is gonna be a dyno for these. Just want the money spent be reasonable.

 

Hey OP

you did a 15.181 @ 90,6mph... I my best runs were 16,34 @ 88,3mph and 15,93 @ 90,4mph (@ 2930lb)

that is 0,75sec slower with same trap speed... how do I get an ET like you?

my only mods are custom 2,5" exhaust, highflow cat, 4-1 header and k&n plate airfilter...
oh, and 8X17" rims with 215/40 tires (which are a bit heavy)

Thanks

 

High trap speed and high E/T means that you suck off the line. So work on your launch.

 

when the last yellow light comes on launch then and your et should be better. My ets were like 0.610. Not a good 1/4 time clutch was slipping probably effected my et too.

Where is the track located? What altitute?

You must suck at the launch. Did you spin a lot? What were you 60" times?

With those mods and wheels you should be around 15.5 or so.

No. Reaction times have nothing to do with your 1/4 times. RT times is the time that it takes you to get out of the staging lane, once you left your RT is recorded, then your 1/4 time starts.

 

These times are from my G-Tech...

Altitude is only like 100 meters (don't know how much feet that will be) anf it's not a real track... Just a backstreet in our industrial area...

Hmm... wheels don't spinn that much I think... But than again I don't know much spin would be much :unsure:

How should I launch best?

I'll try to shift at lower rpms than redline... maybe that would help a bit... Not sure about where most power is in my rpms...
