M6 Nitrous Gear Qs Basic Heads Cam car, Makes about around 450 to the tire N/A. I cant remember dyno numbers off the top of my head. Anyway..that has been my set up for last season with a 100 shot. Car was full weight. I ran a 4:10 with a 28in Tire. Went 10.6s-10.7s all day @ 125-126. Shifting about 6500. This winter Iv done some weight reduction(maybe 125 lbs) and wanted to spray more (150-200 range) and swap gears to 4:56s. Also at this time doing rod bolts, bearings. I figured safely I could turn the car 7200 and stil be able to mph around 134-135. My goal is to be low tens knocking on 9s with some work. Am I wrong in my thinking? Would 4:10s be better or even 4:30s be better?
Getting the car to leave good is the part you need to worry about. Aggressive suspension and most likely a de either a progressive kit or 2-step will be key. I would do everything else but gears. See how it runs. I.e. test n tune.
Then see if gearing is required.
