Default Finally everything is in.

ok everything in my sig is finally in plus 42.5 injectors and im getting dyno tuned this thursday, now im looking to hopefuly see somewhere around 420hp, think this is reachable??.

Oh and I supposedly have a race coming up with what i think is an impossible win for me, my friend has an 03 cobra with runningwith the devil tune, k&n kit, xpipe, magnaflow, and a 4# pulley, and some suspension mods, the first time we raced I was stock basically couple bolt-ons, and got my **** kicked. I hope I can hang with him this time, what do you think.??? I would love to beat him..

Your definitely going to need a rear with 4.11 gears. A good driver with a Cobra like that should be running 11.5-11.8 in the 1/4.

I think you should go for a set of 4.30 gears. They aren't too steep for a M6

I agree 4.30 is the best gear for the M6. I wouldn't be suprised to see you get 430-440 RW. What tires are you running in the rear when you race the guy with the cobra? Hopefully something better than what you had for traction on your 14.5@100 run,lol.. (I'd suggest some M/T drag radials).-Fred
