    it might kill his mph, but lower his 60 ft. if he hooks, meaning prolly a better time.

    James, have u had the rear suspension totally redone yet? what have u done to it so far?

          shocks, and a bigger rear sway. rear sway helped my traction some, and the shocks definitely will help.

              I'm still learning the car.
              It is a b*tch out of the hole!
              I know I should look into tq arm and rear sway bar.
              I wanna see what will happen w/ the et streets first.

                            I would skip the ET Streets and go right on into the ET Drags. You have line locks right?

                              I agree, but I would need a 15 inch rim
                              15 inch weld drag lites are VERY expensive
                              I would like to explore that avenue eventully

                                10.5 et streets are more than enough for your setup. ive cut 1.53s with 3.23s NA on a 16" 10.5 et street. iv cut 1.5s on nittos too. drags will slow you down, i dont think you are making enough power to make use of them. 11.5s will slow you down too, they are pretty big. i didnt even get them for my car since they were so big. youd need atleast a 3.73 to make use of them.

                                and why not a torque arm? i like when people complain and complain about no traction and thats why their ETs arent as good. do something about it then [img]smile.gif[/img]
