I got my MT/Streets from ebay for 200 for two (used but still alot of life left) then I got two 17" bullits from HCM through this forum for a great price. I think I have, 450 in the whole deal. I have an Aluminum DS from Spyder as well, I wouldn't discount that as a great Mod!

Your running exactly 2 tenth's quicker than me right now, and You have the 4.10's and a nice Suspension set up over my 3.73's and just CHE LCA's, but I have the DS and the Tires, Not to mention I seen your from Maryland so I'd imagine your track is much closer to sea level than mine near Pittsburgh.

I should hit up the track in Maryland one day to see how I do closer to sea level.

yeah.. i think i may be pulling the trigger on DRs soon then lol

i'm probably just going to finish up all the bolt-ons on the car too... don't have much more left.

swaybar delete, UDPs, UCA, LCA relocation, delete plates and driveshaft along with some MT slicks or DRs.

i would love to see high 11s on MT et streets, do you think that would be possible with some crazy driving?

The hole thing is the launch, if you're getting 1.9's with Street tires that's pretty impressive, I get 1.9's with DR's granted I'm way Green to Racing however, I've been about 6 times now, and I'm learning, but I'm gettgin 1.9's with DR's... Maybe it's the elevation, I don't know, Maybe my 3.73 v. your 4.10. Really I'm not sure. but High 12's is my goal n/a. at my track. If I can pull that off, I'll probably call ti quits till I save for some Forced Induction.

There is a Gent at the track I frequent with a Redfire, 06 GT. He dropped in 4.10's and the Sway Bar Delete, and he is runnign practically the same set up I am and he is running 13.0 to 13.1.

But I read this thread and you're saying you're still on street tires. I'll be the first one to tell ya man, a 12.94 @ 108 mph on the Factory Tires, is pretty Damn Impressive at any altitude.

add a 75 shot to the combo with your bolt ons and Im sure you can hit high 11's with some crazy driving.

Spydershaft was good for 0.16 and 1.5-1.9 mph on my car on real street tires (Pirellis).
Mybest 60 with Pirellis and 3.55is 1.859. My car was bogging when it hooked with 3.55.
I dont doubt the the driveshaft would help more with slicks.
My factory shaft including flange, bolts, and small carrier bearing assy weighed 51.5 lb.
The Spydershaft is 19.0 lb with flange and bolts.

I went with 4.10 and 26x11.50-17 ET Street Bias Ply Tubeless.
On the 1st three passes I got 1.84-1.81 without 2nd gear. Im out of 1st gear before the 60 mark.
The car wont go in 2nd since the tire change. I believe the trans is torqing to far and misaligning the shifter.
The car definately has 1.7 in it with somelaunch and tire pressure adjustments and2nd gear.
I have the parts to fix this and am installing this week.
