and my 1/8 mile time before the stall was an 8.84, after is a 8.4x, cant remember the hundreth and dont feel like going to get the slip out of the car lol.
Gotcha. Yea man, definitely throw some clutch packs in their when you do the gears. Peeling one wheel is no good.

Thats a nice gain from the stall, especially on street tires. Did you gain any trap, or just ET?

I had 555r's so not really a street tire but i guess they kind of are lol. I trapped as high as 102.5 which is a little over 2mph gain. I'd like to be in the 103-104 area so hopefully the 4.10's help. Then would be aiming for 112+ on spray.

Ah, the 555Rs make more sense of the gain, not that you wouldn't of seen a nice gain from just the stall. I'd say the Nittos probably account for a tenth or 2 of that though. I'm anxious to see what you end up with after you hit it with some nitrous. I'm thinking that 112 trap is a realistic goal. Definitely low 12s.

Btw, I'm still planning on running quicker than you mod for mod, lol.

well the nitto's I had before when I ran my 13.7 so really the only thing i added was the stall, shift kit, and lca's. and dont rain on my parade with your fancy 6 liter LOL.

In that case, its a solid 4 tenth gain then. Thats a mod well worth the $$$.

Hehe, this fancy 6.0 is stout for an SUV, but for the money I could definitely be quicker with something else. I've got a C6 E-Fan on the way, so I'll let you know where she's at after that and a tad bit more weight reduction (rear seats~90lbs), hopefully quicker than a 13.5. Once you spray that GT, I'm going to be buses behind you man. Will your trans hold a decent sized shot for awhile? Even with a trans cooler, its all it can do to keep it within reason with the stall, right?

I sure hope it holds the spray for a while lol. I'll prolly only be spraying at the track and very rarely on the street since this is my dd and if something goes boom i'd be effed. But I may have to throw in some new clutches/seals in the trans since it does have 120k+ on it. that's no big deal tho, on a fresh rebuild i've heard these things can take quite a beating. more than a stock 5sp can take apparently.

If it helps you sleep any better, I know a guy here locally with an 04 Mach, automatic. He's been hitting it with a 150 shot for probably 5 years now. He claims over 150 passes and an uncountable amount of street runs on the spray. The car is 100% stock other than the spray and some tuning.

Great pass! I'm sure it has high 12's in it, but might be a glory pass. also just use 150 pills but keep the timing real low.

ill be doing the same eventually with 200 pills. gotta work my way up to that first.

If I dont get atleast 2 high 12 passes on motor I may eventually break down and get some long tubes in it. I have to get a faster time than a 12.92 cause that's what my buddy did once with full bolt ons, manual trans, and weight reduction. If I can do faster without weight reduction and an auto he's gonna be pissed lol, since he's a huge manual trans fan.
