I dont think you will neccesarily see better ET's as you will be able to launch straight and attain more consistant 60' times.

My airbag doesn't ET very well at all. I've tried spraying it with VHT and lowering the pressure but for some reason it just can't get off the line. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it doesn't have an engine?

I'm installing one just so I can come off the line straight and safe. THink that might be the biggest benifit though I do see how it could help the weight stay equal over both rear tires.

The Airbag will make your launches straighter and your 60' times more consistent resulting in a better ET. It keeps the weight evenly distributed over both rear tires. What you gain is hard to say depending on your mods and driving skills it could help alot or a little but it will help. I pump mine up to 22psi and I cut consistent 1.57 - 1.59 60' times. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

An alternative (and a more effective idea, IMO) would be to run a stiffer rear swaybar. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
