I don't deal with IMRC plates, but I must say, that is unusually high MPH for your mods...
Weird...

I took out my imrc plates and have never looked back. Ive heard good things about shortening the runners 2 in but i have no experience.

that's funny the car went 103mph stock, my car is now lighten up with full suspension when I hook it up it'll probably go 108 with a better et even though I was spinning on drag radials when it went 110 also have friend with the same mods and a 01 cobra, he runs 114 at 12.0 with the 1.89 6t ft, so hoping the car will stay around 110 tuned and hooking up

i don't think its worth it, from the dyno sheets ive seen its not worth it, where you do get the extra power is way up high and its usually maybe 4whp but you lose a little bit down low, all in all no real power gains, just adjust your powerband/ tq/curve but not for the good if you ask me... it might do a little bit since you've got the 4.56s? i think thats what that typo was down low.

post up a time slip.

idk how you spin with full suspension and a DR... are you dropping at like 6500?

Cecil County is like 7 feet short of a true 1/4 mile and slightly downhill. Run there when it's cold and you are sure to get your best time.
