someone has a traction problem... I'd expect you to run a 13.4-13.5 at about 99-101 if you had better traction

I havent noticed a lack of traction.
Ive got upper and lower control arms and still have the quad shocks too.
I aired the MT ET Street radials down to 15 psi.
My car has an AOD in it too.

if you plan on running it as a dominantly track car.... you will want to get an edge racing coverter, and run it around 3500-4000

This car for the most part is a street car I run on the track. I dont want it to be an all out race car.

I went with a cheaper ACC converter because I wasnt sure (still not) if I want to keep the AOD or swap in a 5 or 6 speed.
