those are good times

and yes gears are definitely best bang for buck. bet if he had stock gears would have ran a 15 or slower

every little bit counts

upgrade the tb, maf, and intake. u will get some more power up top and prob hit a low 14

28 inch tall is WAY too big for a stock motor though. bet u could do better with a smaller tire.

That mph should get you close to a 14.5. What were your 60fts?

Edit* Nevermind saw you previous post, some sticky tires around 26 inches should help you drop your 60ft and get you moving a little faster. You might even pick up a couple mph in the end too.

Well i know the 28 inch tall tires r to big it was a good deal so i got them. But i plan on doin the tb and maf and intake sometime in the near future. I want a gt40 intake but i cant find em because they dont make em anymore so i only find a few every once in a while
