Im in the conversion process of my 87 from a nitrous LS6 to a turbo LQ4. Im trying to figure what I may run in the quarter. Lets say i do 700 wheel with my current setup. TC78 370lq4 with after market pistons and rods, 243 ported heads and custom turbo cam. Im trying to figure my rear gear with a th400 and 28" 275/60/15 ET street DR II rear tire. I currently have 3:55 gears but dont think they will work .. What gears you running? ET? MPH? HP?WEIGHT?

My car currently with the LS6 in it weighs 2760. I figure it will be close to 2900 with the turbo setup. I am going to run "stock suspension" so if any of yas have any good setups let me know, im currently running southside lowers, v8 springs, wolf antirollbar, upr adjustable uppers.

Also anyone with a converter they love for the TH400? I need one and was thinking circleD.

any info that can help me with my car is much appreciated. anything you wish you would of done different to your setups?

thanks

I'm honestly not sure on the power my car is putting out but it is a '00 mustang weighing in at just under 3000

lq4/s475/th400

I'm running a 325/50 (28" tire) and the car is going through the traps at about 6800 at 141 mph

this is 9lbs of boost running a 3.31 gear (I went with 3.31 over a 3.27 due to pinion size)

I have actually thought of putting a 3.08 into the car to see what it is like :shrugs:

700 hp in a lightened up fox oughtta do bottom 9s

yea i figured low 9s for my setup, but was curious what gear i need.. I ran 100 shot and hit 136mph with my 3.55s. So I was leaning toward 3.27 but didnt want to run out of gear.
