Good to know

I have always said that 3.55's where fine with a TS since 1-2nd are useless anyway. But the more I think about it the more I think it would be more fun in 3-5th with 4.10's. Those gears are pretty tall, so I think 4.10's might be the way to go.

Maybe if moose would offer me a ride, it might push me over the endge into spending more money.

Do you want to go for a ride with the 8psi pulley or the 10? Sometimes it feels like the tires will break loose in 3rd gear with the 10. Let's do a roll race in 3rd and we can see how much quicker I am. You could be making more power than me though, you never know.

Are you North of the airport or South? I'd rather meet you somewhere like Eustis than Daytona. It'd be easier for me to go straight down hwy 19 and that's a fun road with a supercharged mustang.

Don't have a t/s but 4:10's+twinscrew+ street tires=some seious spin in first and second. I have a centri with decent suspension and good sreet tires and I will spin at about 4-5k. Second hooks fine. Buddy has whipple/3:90's with my similar suspension/tire setup. I would keep the stock gears if I were to get a t/s and it was a DD..

1st is useless with any gears. I would like to be able to use full throttle in 2nd without spinning, but i'm not sure there's a street tire up to the task.

Get a centri then[sm=itsok.gif][sm=joke.gif]

Probably 8psi so I can feel the difference in the gears. I would think we should be within 10rwhp power wise but who knows. The only I have different is the relocated IAT, stock clutch and no Alum D/S

I live 15 mins NW of the airport. Right near where 528 and 417 cross. I am sure we can find a good place halfway imbetween. Next time I get a weekend without my wife making plans (few and far between [&:]) I will shoot you a PM.

And back on topic I think anyone with over 450rwhp and a TS will hook up in 1rst or 2nd on street tires. But I think a little extra in 3-5 is good.

Another thing to think about is your rear tire height. I plan on goin to a 28" rear tire, which will give me a taller final gear ratio. Maybe I should split the difference and go 3.90's.

You should be able to tell us. I'm curious. How do you hook from a dig at wot in first?

Me? I have to stay out of the boost in 1rst or I get no traction at all. I have to feather second to not spin around 4700rpms.

I normally short shift first and second and go WOT in 3rd.

Honestly currently I dont think I am any faster in 1rst than I was with the CAI and tune. Eventually I am going to run some big meats on the back which will hopefully help, but at the moment no $$.

I have 2 very expensive hobbies, car and gun collecting. After the blower I have been spending money on other stuff.

Next year is round 2 that will include wheels.
