Full bolt ons? What exactly do you have, and what companies made the parts that you installed?

With drag radials you will need to heat them up pretty well, not sure what your tire pressure needs to be... but someone else will answer that, after you do a good burn out probably keep it over 3k... not sure how well nitto's are, but maybe even 4k at the launch... dont get distracted watching the 10 second open header camaro beside you like i did 2 or 3 times... LOL

If the Nittos are new, HEAT THE CRAP out of them. After a few runs, just spin them very little to get the hard rubber off.

My friend had Nittos on his 03' Mach and they were crapola. He then got MT et streets and now cuts 1.8 60's all day. BFGs are also good

what do i need to launch at? 3-4k rpms or what?

I hated the Nittos. I never cut a decent 60' with them.

Yeah tell me about it....my buddy with a well modded Mach 1 was running high 9's and even Low 10's on them in the 1/8th[&:].....He then gave them to me and i went from 8.8- 9.0 in the 1/8th on street tires to 9.8- 10.0.....they were greasy as hell. I got me some MT's now.....MUCH better
