I ordered the UDP's this week so they wont go on until this weekend. The 4.10's are going in next week. I raced a stock 07 yesterday and he was right beside me until third i started to pull a little but we let off because the road went from two lanes to one. He had Borla axel backs and that was it. We were at around 40 punched it and he was right there. I was a little disappointed with my tune after that. I have Foose 20's wrapped with 285/30/20 in the rear. Could they make enough difference for him to stay with me like that. Or was he BSing on his mods.

Have you considered a water pump along with pullies?

Unsprung weight is a killer. 20's are usually pretty heavy wheels, tho I have seen some that are light weight. Not sure on the weight of the Fooses, but if they are as heavy as they look, yeah, thats exactly why he kept ya.

No I haven't thought about a water pump. Do I need onewhen I put on the pullies?

i tihnk he means that if you do pullies, and can afford it, get the electric water pump to essentially remove the water pump from the belt system. You'll still have a belt running over it, but the enigine wont be using its mechanical power to run the pump.

With 4.10s, wouldnt the delete plates acutally be a good idea?

How about a shifter? MGW-only way to go.

Any idea what electric water pumps cost. I never thought about that. The economy deletes from steeda are 140. Thats not bad for 10 hp. What are the draw backs for deletes and can I install them myself. Alot of people say leave them alone. Sucks to be torn on what next
