Not happy with performance..
Proxes TQ are drag radials. They hook substantially better than 555Rs. They are the same compound as the NT05R and that hooks as well as the MT DRs from what I've seen and the few magazine articles that tested them back to back.
They have the soft sidewall.
The R888s are the road race tire. It's easily the best street tire for our cars. It does dry, wet, corners, and has straight line capabilities equal to most DRs on the street.

I was reading/thinking 888Rs, which are the road race, not drag radial.
I apologize.
Thanks for correcting me on that.. I didn't even read your entire post before it hit me. LOL

I kept thinking 888R every time I read the post. LOL

O wow.... Guys, I apologize.. This is what 3 hours of sleep in over a 36 hour span will do to you.

Verdad Gallardo yeah the 888Rs are the roadrace ones. Get some sleep or else you will be just like this guy.....https://ls1tech.com/forums/racers-lo...-all-time.htmlI know why I'm tired: Internet connection.
Honestly... My sleep schedule is just straight F'ed right now. I got roughly 3 hours of sleep yesterday afternoon and that is about it.. Going to try to turn it around tonight. We'll see!
If not, it is converter or tune.
If you have to change something big and not trouble shoot, my first place would be the converter.
You can buy a brand new PTC for 475$ shipped to your door.
Don't pay attention to the #..
I made 36XRwhp and weighing 3500# and 2200ish DA was trapping 95 or so MPH... Roughly 120mph in the 1/4.
Ran 7.2-7.3s 1.50-1.52 short times with small amount of wheel spin... Bottom 11s in the 1/4.
I don't even take into consideration dyno #s with stalled autos.

You need sleep man, that was his 60' with street tires, on the DRs his 60' was 1.76.
Actually I'll test out the Nitto DRs I have now with the different heads and then the Toyos after to see the difference.
I'm going to work for a couple hours and then coming home and going to bed until tomorrow morning.
That settles my bad advice giving for the day!
