i dont remember off the top of my head. I know that i can go about 56in 2nd at close to 6k and i know its close ratio, i think i might be able to do 40 in 1st at 6k w/ 26 tall tire.

Do you have the stock rear-end gears?

It may be 1st gear that's costing you--from the "speed-in-gear" numbers you posted it sounds as though the have a T-56 with the 2.97:1 first gear. The T-45 (or 3650 for that matter) have a 3.38:1 first gear.

As to the rest you need to get a WB O2 sensor on there and see what's going on...

i know it has an affect, but i thought lower first gear was more going to kill my 0-60mph just because i have to just barely shift to third now, but over the quarter i thought getting out of the hole faster was part of getting better times.....who knows, im sad to say that it looks like all of my thought that i put into this design seems to be a waste. s#!tty, im just gonna say f it and stop wasting time and money on this design and just move right into the SC. i was hoping these upgrade were going to take me from 13.39 to 12.99 but i guess i was dreaming. BOO!
