et reduction list? Hey there;
Um I was wondering if there was a list of mods that can help a newbee racer out in reducing their et's.
like removing front sway bar is worth........... a 1 tenth reduction
removing 50 lbs is worth ..........................a .5 tenth reduction
putting in qa1 shocks is worth...................a .5 tenth reduction
every 10 hp gains is worth ........................a 1 tenth reduction
every mod I want to make my only concern is lowering my et but I don't want to just through hp at it I want to work the stock motor and gain the lower et by doing things like a new rear with 4,10's et streets and shocks but I have no idea how much this stuff will lower my et and I want more bang for the buck and make informed decisions.
I like the weight reduction list can we get a et reduction list?
thanks ACE68

Oh, I am thinking of a list that addresses some of the questions are repeatedly asked on this site. For example:
1. how much ET improvement can I expect from changing from a 3.23 to a 4.11 in a T56 LS1 Camaro SS.
2. how much ET improvement can I expect from adding a 100 shot.
3. how much ET improvement can I expect from changing from a 1800 stall to a 3800 stall.

its damn near impossible to make a list such as taking X part will net you X improvement in et/mph due to teh fact that there are way too many variables. for example, if you take off 100 lbs from a car that weighs 2700, it will make a bigger difference than in a car that weighs 3600 (100 is a bigger percentage of 2700 than of 3600). that is just one of MANY MANY variables, but i guess we could generalize (eg. 100 lbs = 0.1 et reduction)
