Ok I have a great car and it runs great to, put down about 600 rwhp, I want Opinions on what needs changed, I'm looking for high 9's in the 1/4. Its a 88 stang with the ls6, 4l60e-tci 3500 stall, 8.8 rear with 3.73's, has mp70 turbo, 48mm bov, 50mm w/g, ls6 is stock besides arp hardware. What would need changed to be a good 9 second car, has full suspension, cage and sticky tires already

seems like the car should do an easy 9 as it sits. whats it run so far?

Haven't made it to the track yet, not sure if it will hook good enough to get 9's like I want, it spins the 275-60-15 mt et's on the highway at 70mph

Its ran the 1/8th once and think it got high 6's spinning the tires

Maybe you should start with tires and suspension then? lol

ivan_key

Has good tires, they might hook at the track if I get them nice and hot, suspension is all aftermarket besides I need to find a rear sway bar and some coil overs maybe

Ya you reaaally need to get a baseline. Go to the track with it just like it is and make some shakedown runs. That will tell you what you need to start fixing. Its not about the tires , or turbo piping, or suspension. Its about the whole combination and how it all works as a whole.

You need to get some passes under its belt. period.

As soon as I get a rear sway bar on ill go get me some times and see how it does, not really wanting to take it with out the sway bar on the rear bc its twisting hard

more boost + bigger turbo

Should go 9's as it sits, sounds like you need to get the suspension worked out. 600rwhp in a fox will go 9's if it's built right. As far as upgrading...I'd go to a nice 76 if you really wanna change something.

ivan_key

Ya I heard the 70mm is close to maxed out on my car or something, I'm going to turn it up to 12ps1 and take it to the track, will a 76mm tubro be a lot better then what I currently have?

Oh yea, pt76gts= 800+ capable.

Ill prolly should wait untill i get an iron block before i try pushing over 800 rwhp
