I had a few people tell me the same thing, Skyler, i think if i can heat up the tires a little more and get more consistant with my launch i'll be able to experiment with shift points a bit more.
As for what's done with my car: 1.7 roller rockers, E7 heads with thermactor bump removed, 1 5/8" shorty headers, 2 1/2" H-pipe and Stinger cat-back, 3.55 gears, stock T5, A/C removed, interior partially stripped, trick flow street intake, 70mm throttle body/spacer, Fenderwell induction, 70mm MAF, 30 lb/hr injectors (prep for nitrous). I could gain a bit more by cleaning up my headers, and especially by gasket matching intake to heads and working heads a little bit, but i want to rebuild another engine anyway and i figure the nitrous will help a bit....plus if it blows up no big deal ![]() I have a B-cam and GT40 heads ready to go (i will gasket match heads and port them slightly) and i'm going to port the lower trick flow intake at some point, but i've decided i'll have a new bottom end to go with this stuff rather than my 130,000 mile band-aided block. Hopefully as the season goes on, i'll be able to get my launch down, but i really need a line lock for my burnouts plus my trac-lock is showing signs of wearing out (did my first one wheel peel ever at the track), so the right tire was sticky on my 13.5 launch and hte left wheel was cool so it went a little sideways..... there's always something i need to improve ![]()
