Default ST3500 INSTALLED TODAY !!

ive got about 30 miles on it so far, and i love it!! <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> the car should have came with it stock. there is no chattering and no codes it locks up at about 50 mph and then the car drives like its stock. it brake stalls to about 3300 on the stock tach with unheated ET streets.
imo its not too loose at all and i have 2.73's

oh yeh i never realised how good my loudmouth sounded til now!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

i cant wait to see how the car will 60 ft. with the st3500, my previous best with the stock converter is a 1.74 with ET streets.
im hoping for somewhere around a 1.50 with the stall.

Also, what 60' times are you getting?

i just got home from the track. the yank worked out pretty well for me. it knocked exactly 1/2 second off my best n/a time in the 1/8 mile (thats all we have here) and picked up 2 mph in less than perfect weather.

on the bottle i gained 4 tenths from my best of a 7.81 to a 7.41 i only ran two n20 runs a 7.51 the first pass and a 7.41 the next pass. im confident there is more left in the car.

my best 60 ft. of the night was a 1.58, this is a full weight car with 2.73's and swaybar still on. bone stock suspension ET steets at 18 lbs.
my wife and friends said it was getting about 2 inches of air under the front tires. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

THANKS MIKE @ YANK!!! <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />
