good times man...im sittin about where you are with mods .. but when we took off the flowmaster and went to true duals.....it made a huge diff. .25 seconds on a hotter day than when we ran the flowmaster....have you thought about true duals?


justin l. 99SS M6..all the bolt-ons

 

Im getting a cut out for now...

 

I guess your going to have to change your sign now. Great results

 

Is this before or after tuning? I just got my Jet Hots on a couple weeks ago, and haven't yet been to the track. I have the same basic mods as you (though mine's an A4). Wasnt sure if I'd see huge gains before I got it tuned, as its running rich as crap.

 

nice runs man

i saw talked to you out there, i had the white t/a on prostars

my last run was my best, dont know if you saw it, i ran 12.2 @ 117.7 w/ a 2.03 60'

those are some pretty good times there you ran, oh and i fuggen love the color of your car

 

I havent got tunning yet. I was going to do it next wekend but now I have to buy a clutch. Found out when my gets hot it stops working


Tally TransAm,

Hey man!! 12.2 at 117!! John Force could get better times with that MPH though. No really, thats freakin moving... now you have to get a rear so you can really see what it will do. I am going to try and make it back out there next wednesday , If I have the nitrous installed. I,ll look for you.

Justin how does the exaust sound with the Jet Hots and the Flow? I'm kinda leaning towards Jet Hots myself

 

Sweeet...... I think it sounds really good. There is a little bit of rasp but it is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be with out cats. I know other cat backs are suposed to flow better but I dont really want to change the way it sounds. I am just going to get a cut out for now. but I dont think that I have the LS1 flowmster cat back. It was the only thing that was on the car when I bought it. So im not really sure what model muffler it is.

Yeah, jet hots with flowmaster sounds great. At first I had loudmouth with jethots, but that sounded like ***, so I put a flowmaster cat back on instead. It's supposed to flow like crap, but It sounds infinitely better...pluss I can just get a cut out, and that will outflow any cat back.

 

man is there any way u can get a sound clip ?!?!?!?!? i have a flowmaster right now and i was thinking about gettin the whole 4" cat back and i wanted to get some jet hots, how much did it run you for everything? is there any way i can hear it?? man i would love to hear the sound.....

 

Sorry man.. I dont have any way to put viedo or sound clips on the computer....I might be able to get my neighbor to help me out though, I think he has the equipment for that. I'll see what I can do.

,Justin

 

thanks, if u can get it on here that would be great

 

Nice mph for your mods. Are you powershifting? You should be running around a 12.7-12.8 @ 110mph on a 2.0 60' IMO.

 

Yeah i agree with Unit. My cousin ran a 13.2 with a lid and cutout with his 01 SS 6-speed. We just finish putting Jet Hots on so we are hoping for high 12s now. i think he will gain 3 tenths or more which will put him in the 12s.

 

How do the Jet Hots compare to QTPs? Will you see better gains the the QTPs.

Nice run man, get the 60' down and you're there.

 

IMO the QTPs will not gain any more then the Jet Hots will. The only difference may be that the QTPs are a little better quality header but thats about it. Goodluck

 

No not power shifting, my clutch is slipping pretty bad, and it barley works when it gets hot. I think mabye thats why im not hitting 12's.I defanetly have the MPH for it. A friend of mine went down with me and ran a 12.88 at I think 109MPH But he was on E/T streets. The new clutch is suposed to be here around wednesday next week. It will be in the car by the next srteet night which I think is DEC 6th. Im sure I could use some more practice as well, this was only my second time ever on a 1/4 mile track.

I dropped 2 tenths after the jet hots, but I was running with 3 ses lights on also. 2 O2 sensors were not active and the A/f was off. This was w/o tuning of course. Sound is great also. Jet Hot LT's, ORY, and SLP DD exhaust.

 

12.7-12.8 with a 2.0 60ft? Holy crap. There must be something wrong with my car, cause I had a 60 ft of 2.080 and only ran a 13.67 @ 103.xx
