went 8.58/2.0 60' with 17 nitto dradials, hooker aero catback, and slp lid.
went 8.32/1.95 60' with qtp longtubes, 3" bullets, mt dradials, lid, bmr lca's, and bmr adj. torque arm.
with a full exhaust, some tires, and a stall, you should be set (if 7's is all you want).
you will love the 3500 stall for dd.

i went a best 1/8 last weekend, 7.68@87 with a 1.61 60ft with mods in sig. its my daily driver.. i had a yank py3400e then went to a fuddle4000. if its a daily and depending on mods u want to do id say 3400-4000 stall should work just fine for you.

my best so far is 8.26 @86.7 mph w/ a 2.0 60 ft. i have a lid, catback, gears, shifter. with a good 60 ft i could hit a 7.999999 now. but ill have to wait til mr 12 bolt gets here to put a good tire on it. btw i was on 315 nittos.

My wife's car has a 3500 TCI and she loves it.

It is her daily driver car. She gets about 22 miles to the gallon.

It knocked 5 tenths off her ET.

Got a 1.7 60 foot on street tires.
