How Fast with This New Setup?

MY91GT · 02-20-2001, 05:22 PM

I just got an RPM intake and a 75mm TB(i know it may be too big-we'll see) and a tremec with a 3.35 1st compared to my Z which had a 2.95 1st. My best time before with a 65 TB and a TFS Track Heat was a 12.9 @ 107.5 with a 1.98 60' without powershifting or slicks. What do you guys think? Low 12's with slicks? Or, do you suggest anything that I should change? How bout a home-made ram air(homedepot)?

Low 12's definitely with slicks.

How were you thinking about making that ram air?

Ram Air-
Alot of people just run a dryer duct hose out the front foglight hole. Myself though welded together a little box that looks like the end of the march ram air box and covered the hole with speedgrill insert. Its a little more flashy then just the hose run out the hole.
