Default 3600 vig + 3.73's = holy ****

well i just got my car back from transmission physicians in tampa and the car feels totally diffrent.. i went from having 2.73's, stock stall, and no 2nd gear to an all out beast... i love this new setup and cant wait to see what im running in the 1320


i have this on my daily driver, and it feels great in town, and i lost all the blat blat blat sound from my exaust setup (i was gonna change my exaust, but now i dont need to)...

did you get it tuned? i can't see how gears and a stall could get rid of your rasp. a tune could explain it, but untuned...hmm...

well my rasp was kinda wierd.. it wouldnt do it in park or neatral, it wouldnt do it on the dyno or at WOT..

it would only do it when taking off with traffic at about 2100 RPM i believe since it was under a "load" is why it was doing it... now since the convereter doesnt lock up till about 45mph it goes right pass where it would rasp (if that makes any sence)


either that or the tranny shop decided to throw on some highflow cats or somethin for me without an additional charge


yes it is tuned, but it was tuned with full boltons first then i had it retuned with my new setup (stall and gears are the only thing ive done since my last tune)

rasp will be much more evident under a load than free revving. this would explain why cars are lounder when racing than when just revving up. the converter relieves most of the load on the engine until it achieves fluid couple. so in town, the car would be quieter under normal driving with a high(er) stall than stock. but wot will be about the same.

with a good tire you should easily see low 12s with that setup.

Glad your happy, Fernando and Chris busted thier asses to rid you of the rasp and banging of the exhaust. If it was up to them they would have rip the exhaust off and go true duals, lol! Told you that bitch would feel great!

i plan on doin true duals in a few weeks.. there is a shop down here that will do it for 500 over the axel, and you actually gain ground clearence compared to the loudmouth (i saw one on a lift that they did)

im gonna need new tires in a few days.. today i layed about 300ft of rubber infront of my buddies house, and 3 more houses next to him.. from a dig to half way through 3rd with out touching the brake or anything

+1, except I have 3.42s and 3500 stall. Like the original poster stated, my blat exhaust disappeared as soon as the Yank/3.42 was installed. It got better when I got it tuned.

If you manage to hook, I wouldn't be surprised if you hit a high 11sec pass.

I would say a 12.4 woudl be a good goal with a decent radial... maybe after some practice, a few more mods, and some cut wieght, a high 11 will be more then just a lucky run....
