Will my et's drop w/ new mods?
The best time Ive ever gotten was a 12.6 @ 113 mph (116 best mph) 2.0 sixties. w/ 275 40/17 bfg drag radials @ 18psi launching @ 2k(stock 3:42 gears). My new mods are, Bmr boxed sfc's, spohn lca, relocation brackets, bmr t/a, spec xpad billet flywheel, and my janzter ported t/b will be here tommorow. So what kindah et's will I be expecting? Im hoping for atleast a 12.3's/ 12.4's. TIA

In good weather and late an nite ......I estimate 12.20's to 12.40's, maybe a little lowered. Your MPH is pretty good and the port and polish TB should give you a little more MPH. Also, the suspension components will be a great help and assistance on the 60 foot. Do everything you can to get the lowest 60 as possible. Additionally, take as much weight off of car as possible. I am sure the know the drill. Cheers and Good luck.

Wassup guys got new times from mods.
reaction .661
60 ft 2.143
330ft 5.517
1/8 et 8.203
1/8 mph 90.06
1/4 et 12.496
1/4 mph 115.69
this was launching @ idle w/ bald bfg dr's, 60 foot sucks! I tried launching from 1k to 2500 and tires would just blow and getting worst 60's like 2.3's.
What do you guys think? When I have my new 15x8 welds pro stars @ the rear w/ 10.5x26 et streets, will my times drop more?

Get the sixty foot down and ET will come down. You must be able to do something to do better than a 2.00 plus sixty foot. Lighten the front up as much as possible and go with the slicks with the lighter wheels. Watch other friends with a six speed and see what mods and their technique for a lower sixty foot. Research burnout procedures. Your car must definitely has a 12.20 or lowered in it. Go get it. Cheers and good luck.........................................
