Those cars run hi 14s . You should run mid 15s stock and those 3 73s with the shiftter should knock off .3 secs off the 1/4. It will be a close race if he s sstick like you are.

Since when? It effects an auto more than a manual, but I wouldn't say that they don't do much on a manual. You can still see a nice 7-10 rwhp gain.

Stock tune with 87 octane thumbs down. You really need a custom tune with 93 octane to feel some power.
