The reason being that you end up hitting 4th gear just as you are crossing the line and that hurts your ET.
I dont know dark50, i have never driven 3.55, but that's what my 3.27's do, i seem to hit my shift point right befor i cross, and im running out of rpm in 3rd, but going to 4th will cause me to coast over the line, all in all i think i do pretty well with these, im getting off the line rather quickly for the ratio it has.
i do know when i swap, it will be 37, or 410.
