That Flowmaster CB flows worse than stock.

You would gain A LOT with cut-outs.

shittty launching asside...he was consistent in his 60ft time...therefor the times are comparable.

nice gains.

i'm sure only about .1 to .2 is attributed to the SSRA...mostly to the gears. but its a nice comparison.

as for the short times...shitty tires will negate just about any practice. my suggestion is to get better tires. practice helps but if you're flogging a dead horse asking it to go faster...its a mute point.

Invest in some drag radials. You don't have to launch it at 4K RPM and snap the rear. But, you can at least not worry about running 1st at half throttle.

Agreed, at lease the times are comparable, thats a monster gain or next to nothing in mods.

I am aware, that is why I have two flowmaster mufflers waiting to go on my car.

If he has the Flowmaster CB, like he says he does, then that is the single 80 series 3 chamber muffler.
