      Your MPH is the same MPH I had when I ran a 15.5

        soo slacker, did you run those times w/ the mods in your sig. minus the nitrous? i am surprised about your mph. w/ the headers and skinnies. maybe your converter is taking away a mph or two. what was the weather like and tune of your car? when you hook up great like that 1.8 '60 you tend to lose mph. and when you spin you gain a mph or two. can you give me some more details about the run?

            Were you autotapping? THats a LOT of timing.

            head wind and converter will definately hurt your MPH..

            Your 60' is very impressive but you can tell by your ET that your car is a little heavy. Do some weight reduction. [img]smile.gif[/img]

                Damn dude! Nice times [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
                With a lid and a FTRA you should be money. I think you'll hit around 14.5-6 with the lid and FTRA. With that cam that your looking into and a little bit of weight reduction, I would be willing to put down money for a high 13 second pass. Sweet!!! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

                btw, You have nittos right? I plan on going to HRP on Oct. 18 and I have a set of ET Streets so I hope that helps a little bit on the launch. Did you feather it or did you rev it up before the launch? Thanks.

                    what's your 1/8th ET and MPH? That can help us see where you're at while in the middle of the race.

                      what is your str on your verter? higher than 2.65? that's an awesome 60ft, but higher str (edge converters) can result in a lower mph. efficiency is 96% i assume, correct? it's probably the specs on your verter that are "slowing" you down. wouldn't worry about it too much--time is all that matters.

                      damn good run.

                      btw, where can i get some bfg's? i'm getting a 3800 stall (maybe a little less) verter from edge w/2.65 str and i'm thinking i might need some radials :D was thinking 255/45 bfg's...but let me know what you run and what kind of traction issues you have. thx man.

                          Lid and FTRA will be a solid 2-3 mph.

                            Dude i think a lid and the FTRA will not help you much at all. I noticed no difference from my stock lid to the (waste of money) Whisper lid and since you have free ram air done there is no point in getting the FTRA. But hey that is just me. :D ;)
