I wouldn't doubt it with the 4.10s, 3500 stall and DRs.

The 4.10s spin like crazy off the line on my car as it is, on street tires.

Default Tuning for the track

Yes, I am getting better traction with the 275/35 tires over stock tires but the wheels are heavy and there is better traction to be had. I am going to get the 26x11.5x17 ET Streets for the track. I was thinking about putting on the 275/40/20 Nitto 555R on the 20" rims for street/track use but I think I will save my money and get the MTs on 17" rims for track use only.

I am not sure what my HP #s are because I have not had it to a dyno. I have a boost gauge, fuel pressure gauge, and Innovate wideband A/F controller and gauge, Innovate OT-1 (OBD-II), and SSI-4 (4 Channel Simple Sensor Interface ); I will be putting these in soon and will work with my tuner to data log and tune at the track . I do not think that I will spend the $$ on a dyno run; I am looking for the best performance at the track, so I will tune it at the track.

noice.. with those tires/rims, I say you should be running low 12s easily.. especially with 4.10s..

IMO the stall & DR's made the difference there.

lol damn.. forgot all about this thread.

Nice times, once you have the ET streets on there, no doubt you should bring it down to at least 12.5 if not better.


I cannot wait to get this kit next summer, and finally get into the 12s!

congrats.


Your launch improve any?

With good air, I'd say you would be able to get at LEAST a low-mid 12.

With "Great" air, I have been able to knock off a 12.768 @ 108.25 with a 1.88 60' with an intake, tune, spydershaft, highflow cats, CMCV Deletes, 4.10's, and FRPP Hotrods and a few suspension mods. With a little more work, and a bit better launch I should get down to a 12.6.

Now add maybe 50-65WHP? I cant imagine not gaining at least .3-.6 seconds

We haven't had any issue putting down 400rwhp with this kit. Of course the weather comes into play with intake temps and pulling timing out, but as long as its nice and cool out you shouldnt have an issue. Thats the negative to being non-intercooled, but the kit is upgradeable. We offer the kit for 3899 and its hard to beat for the price. Buying every bolt on part for your car to make it everything it can will cost you more than that and wont net you anywhere close to 400rwhp. Its really a great bang for the buck and completely upgradeable. With a tire, good driver, and cool weather, you should have no issue getting this kit into the low 12s IMHO.
