I was just out side doing my days thunder walk around.. thinking I give the car a tune, gears, diet and cut out just to bet my brother..
last race he won by little..
my best was 8.134 @ 84 his was 7.964 @ 86
I'm hoping my new things I can bet him.. I hate him posting video to Facebook beating me lol
We race tomorrow again to see.. who things I'll win this time?

If he only won by a little bit, you should have him now for sure.

373s and cutout will help the most. Flowmaster barely flows more then the stocker, the cutout gains will be huge.

He's sandbagging you. When racing for money you only run as fast as needed to win. This allows you to set up the next race.

Shebox's site has the exact value, but it is less than 5v at wot.

Do you care about gas mileage? You should have at least 3.73 gears or higher if you can get away with it.

Then get some real tires and crush him.
