don't forget the relocations brackets, that is what made the biggest diff. Since you're FI, you should have the brackets welded in. Good luck.

No. I pulled a 1.69 on MT ET streets. No LCA or any suspension work other than steeda lowering springs. I ran my tires at 10 psi, have 3.55 gears, and launched around 3000 rpm. ( I have a manual if that makes a difference)

Yeh it sprays at WOT, and i floored it once i caught traction. Only spray for a very short time in 1st, but sprayed none the less.

You def. have the modsfor a good 60', just play with the tire pressure and your RPM at launch and you will get it no problem, just takes time.

The 3.55's are perfectly fine. I thought about going to 3.73's, but it just wasnt worth it imo. Im not quite sure when your turbo spools and all that so gears may help you more than they would help me, but you def. have a 1.7 60' in your car as is.

Turbo spools with my 2 step so im getting the power but i may be bogging a we bit. next time out I'll try 10-14psi in the tires.

When i went down the left side of the track I kept breaking loose. I thought it was my tire pressure so i aired up but then i went down the right side with no problems. I went down once again on the left and broke loose again. I think it was just that side...oh well, first time out Trial and ERROR
