Default short 0-85 video what do you think

I posted earlier, but never said it was a video in the discription and nobody really chimed in. Does it look like its doing ok for a high elevation bolt on car with 3.23's? It was like 60 degrees out and I'm on street tires.

Looks like its pulling strong, but your clutch seems like its slipping at 4,800rpm in first.

I'm not going to lie...that looks slow as hell dude. Maybe its just the gears. A 6spd with 3:42's suck less than that one with 3:23's.

So the general response is to do gears? I'm thinking 3.73's and have been for a while.

don't waste your money on the 3.73. see if you can find a 12bolt. You're going to spend 600 or so changing gears on a rear end that isn't ideal.

I dont know how gears can be recommended when the dood is spinning his tires all the way to 4gz without them. I'd say get tires. possibly torq arm+LCA's. You can also shift a little higher....look at where its dropping u per gear change...make it drop u right b4 the peak power everytime.

The stock cam makes no power past 5800. and i usually hook a LOT better.

Does anybody think maby my tune is crap? I'v always thought it suck, i have no part throttle power. the motor is mechanically perfect, all the work is done very well, it just doesent seem to have the right tune, it comes and goes if you not floored.
