hey everybody, i have a strange feeling about this...
i just had my exhaust pipes removed... i had the muffler guy put some turn-down pipes on my flowmasters...
the low end torque is GONE.
the car feels slower.. but i've read magazine articles that show that turn-down pipes are better for drag racing applications....
either way, i'm worried about this ...
my ONLY time at the track was last week .. i did a quick burn-out and a baby launch at 1500 rpms on street tires.. it ran 13.86 @ 102 mph.
i could have done better with a stronger launch, but i didnt want to spin.. i also granny shifted it as usual
and my 60ft time was 2.2
oh well, i still managed to smoke the ls1 z28 next to me up to the 1000 ft mark after which me walked me by 3 car lengts.. he ran 13.84 @ 106 with a crappy 2.4 60ft time.
on my previous mustang, which went high 11's on 150 shot of spray (89 lx coupe carbed 302 roller motor) i had the same exhaust setup as what i've got now.. and it was much faster.... i dont know if i've screwed this car up or not.. what do you guys think ?
