Those of you with lid, exhaust and a converter: What converter do you have and what times are you pulling in the 60ft?

my best with just a lid, nitto's and 2.73 gears on a tci ssf3500 was a 1.79, but i really couldn't launch it as hard as i wanted to because it would either ennihilate the tires (and blow the whole run) or scare the **** out of me because it would launch so hard- i thought i would break my rear.

i averaged 1.85's (around) and that was easing it out the first 5 feet off of the line then nailing it hard.

i say you could get 1.70's or better if you have ballz (you rear would be in jeopardy).

I race at Bandimere which is over a mile high in elevation, I'm sure I'll get nowhere near what you guys are getting I just like to see what's possible once I graduate lol.

The higher elevation is going to affect the 60ft due to less actual hp. Just make sure you have a good hooking tire. IMO, a set of 16x8 take off wheels with 26x10.5 16 ET Streets will get the job done for cheap.

My car went 12.07 @ 111.42 (1.62) with ~1700 miles on it

Mods at the time:
Whisper Lid, Ported MAF Ends, Ram-Air & Cat-Back
3" Cut-out
ASP Pulley
BMR TB by-pass
160° Power Stat
Yank PT-4400
ES Poly TA Mount
15" Welds, ET Streets 26x10.5 and Skinnies
KBDD subs
GM WS6 Hood and lower air box
Timing Tricker (!TT)
