F15 vs. MS3 Debate
It's not nearly as bad N/A as people think (I was suprised). Especially in a lower weight car. Going from a roll out of the bottom of second kinda sucks but that's why I have two stages of nitrous at my finger tips.
It is a 3,500 2.5str and a 225 shot. Just for ***** and giggles, I'm going to run 9s with the 2.73s next year.

I run some home made 2.5" duals, they are choking the car bad. I think the quickest the car has run with them is 10.4 at about 130-132, that's at street night though so my 60's usually arn't the best. Going with a 3" h-pipe set up this spring.

Gm Muscle Good Luck with the 9's. Your almost there you should have no problem breaking into them.
Pasbonsimon what is your opinion on the F14 that you say would make it good for daily driver? And noticed you have 4.33s how does your car run with them, is the acceleration just out of this world?

If you get a mail order from futral it will run pretty damn good. Know that from experience Friends f14 car went 11.6 @ 117 w/ ls1 intake, stock pulley, slp headers, 12 bolt, 1.7 60' at 3500lbs. Incredible drivability, once upon a time we made a video of it not surging until like 1200 rpm.
Peace,
Josh

the seat of the pants feeling is great with 4.33s, As long as you don't mind rowing the gears. I regret not installing a larger cam such as the F13 or F14
The driveability with a medium sized cam such as F13, F14 is all in the tune. IMO the best tuner for these cams is the man that designed them himself.

I don't mind running the gears to much i mean that what made me want to get an M6. I know the gears will seem much shorter with the 4.30's but i know the acceleration will make it worth it.

I was planning on getting a mail order tune soon as i got the cam installed. How does that work exactly, i send them my computer or something and they tune it then send it back?
