Read the phuchin article dude and educate yourself...this is very very old news...when you do a lid and the FRA the SSRA or FTRA should be done at the same time..people are trying to help you but you seem to be shall we say rather dense..have a happy holiday I'm out..

i completely understand, its that fact that everyone just emphisizes that SSRA, FTRA or whatever is better than FRA... well I'm not opposing that, just how much, that's what I'm contesting. thanks!

Same here. I had !FRA. Then I put on on FTRA and picked up 1 mph and shaved .1 off my ET.

The problem with !FRA is that the intake sucks in hot air while the car is staged waiting for the green light.
