Run some e.t. street with some wheels like you have on the street and then switch to the Billets when I am going to the track..
mine came with the stock chrome SS 10 spokes and my hardtop was black. since i've owned the car it was bone stock. btw i love my rims lol

Well that setup I posted wasn't just thrown together expecting to have a killer setup. It was actually a setup that a local shop I go through has done many times and made big power with. Its put down upwards of 480rwhp through an m6 so I would be pleased with the same results. I just want to do the H/C/I the right time the first time and have no regrets. With this setup If I could run high tens full weight N/A then I'll be more then satisfied!!! Atleast for a couple of months then I'll add a 150 wet shot and see were that gets me

I hit mine with a little 100 shot 3 different times. Track prep was terrible that night so I don't have any full 1/4 mile passes on the spray. The 2 N2O hit off the line I netted a 1.3X 60ft but would break the tires lose at around the 300ft, mark. So the last N20 pass I made I just hit it off the line like normal and engaged the kit at around the 300 ft, mark. Result were pretty good. I don't remember my 1/8 mile e.t. or mph but my 1/4 mile time was 10.28@132mph with a 1.46 60ft. That was the last time I hit it with the gas. Don't want to tear up the stock bottom end. Now the new motor is being built for spray..

Every time I go I break somthing first a driveshaft than the rearend. I ran a 12.9 @ 111 or 112 cant remember cam only 853 heads on street tires that are not in good shape. Than went back with 555r nittos 241 heads mild port and mil , crank pulley, no tune and snap driveshaft. Than broke rearend never got to make a pass. so now I have 410s but I never retuned my car after head swap and it has a street tune on it right now. So I dont know where its at.
