Best mods for the Coyote that gain best 1/4 mile results?
It seems some mods really score big & others dont. I would like to put together a list of bolt on mods & what they are worth E.T. wise on the track. NOT what the dyno says! If we could get this going it would prove useful to alot of folks on where to spend their hard earned $$ 1st. This is what Ive found so far & please feel free to correct me if you know better & have the time slips to back it up. Maybe a Moderator will make it a sticky if it proves valuable?
C.A.I. offers very little. Most folks are running 11s without them. I know Mishri has been researching this as well maybe he can offer some input but Im inclined to say if the C.A.I. gained you even one 1/2 of a tenth it would be doing alot. Maybe Im wrong & would love to be wrong but I dont see any proof where it does any good.
Off road mid pipes see a really decent gain in E.T. 2 tenths seems to be the norm?
Tune for say 91,92 & 93 octane??? Anyone??
BOSS Intake??? I know it builds great power up top but whats the E.T. gains????
Underdrive pullies??? Anyone??
Aluminum D/S?? I know some folks have these & should be able to shed some light on this.
Long tube headers?? These cars have really decent headers already. Is there any room for improvement???
Stall converters for Autos??? What size stall you running & what was the gain in E.T.?
Drag radials seem to be good for 2-3 tenths & slicks even better.
Cams are new & not seen any track time yet that I can see anywhere. Anyone???
Nitrous at 100,125,150,175 & 200 shots???? Anyone running nitrous???
Superchargers at all levels of boost??? I know some here are running boost already so please chime in!
If anyone else can think of mods that reduce E.T. without weight reduction then please jump in as well!

Wow, I'd need an entire evening to respond to each one...
All of the mods you list will help to some degree. As far as the BOSS Intake, I had heard that it has the advantage of flattening the power curve, not just up top, which is cool for motor-X. But from your list and EXCLUDING nitrious and FI, the CAI & tune is probably your biggest gain closely followed or equaled by cams with LT's. Then perhaps the BOSS intake. The DR's would help you hook-up. Everything else would be lower on my priority.

Guys I'm looking for folks who have done before after track tests with mods or know of someone who is doing this to post their E.T. gains.... this could be a great thrwad to help people see where the best gains are to be made on the 1/4. So please help out or don't but the comments that have nothing to do with what I asked is not needed. Thanks.
