Your TQ curve should not be significantly more than any other 99-04 2v with the same mods.

You definatly need to work on your launch. you have an easy 14.0 or 13.9 with your current slips if you could get it down to even a 2.0.

Drag raidal time.

I'd say it's drag radial time and it's also time to work on your MPH!

How quick were your shifts?

Granny shifting in my GT would never get me over 101MPH, with some powershifting I could consistantly trap 103-104mph.

Im not goin to power shift my 3650, the syncros already feel terrible, I want to put a T56 in there. I also need a short throw I feel like im in a semi when im shifting cuase the throw is so damn long. I have also been trying to find some lakewood Traction action bars for my car on ebay but no such luck.

Screw that powershifting. Don't screw up your car just to get better "TRAP" speed. WHO CARES? Do it the right way or end up spending money to fix something down the road.

Kinda what I was thinking. If its you DD, dont ef it up for 2 mph. If its a drag car/toy and you have time and money to fix it, then go for it.
