Mods in sig. Just purchased Yank TP4400 converter with cooler and BMR SFC, LCA, and torque arm. Have $250 to spend. Was looking at Eibach Drag Launch Springs but people tell me its a waste of money. I really wanted something that would help me performance wise. Might end up going appearance. Would get MAFT but dont have ATAP so I wouldnt know where to change. Was also considering a-pillar guages or tint. Can yall think of anything? Thanks

You can make all the power in the world, but with out traction all you’re going to get is a nice long set of blackies and some good trap speeds. You want ET? You need traction! Another vote for tires...

Stop by with $250 in hand and I'll take you to a couple places where we can drop that coin on a good meal, a nice bottle of wine, and maybe a little coganac (sp?) to wash it down. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> <img src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" border="0" alt="[chug]" />

You can get a 16" (rim size) ET Street, but not 17. You'll need different wheels to run these tires.
I think they have a 26X10.5X16 and a 26X11.5X16, and that's the tallest rim size you can get.
Someone correct me if I'm behind the times here <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Your going to have to add to your 250 bucks...but the e.T.'s are the way to go.
166.95 for the 11.5/26 E.T. street at Summit.

Keep a watch in the classified for a used set.
26x10.5x16 will probably be adequate at a good track. 26x11.5x16 also fit, but they are a bigger diameter which effectively reduces your gearing. Not too much of an issue with 3.73s, but I thought they hurt me a bit when I had 3.23s.

Didn't see a cutout on your mods ($25-40). Cheap HP, and with your ORP, when it's open it will make small children cry. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
Another thought is KYB adj shocks. You can leave them firm for AutoX and street, then lighten them up for dragracing, $300/4.
