Default 2.73 to 3.42 ..quick question

i made one pass in this car before , a long time ago, .it went like 13.3 or sumthing , spining at like 110mph. .. if i go from a 2.73 to a 3.42, it should be in the 12's right?...

so my et will increase, but my mph will suffer?>

car is a 94 z28 a4.

If you can hook, it should go quicker. (ET)

MPH will prob be down a little. That's def enough mph for 12's.

What' was your '60 on that run?

Throw a stall in at the same time and it will really rip

Why 3.42's? Why not 3.73's?

That is a very high mph for only running a low 13. That is a bottom 12 mph right there. Even with 2.73's it should be in the 12's as it sits.

Put some good tires on it.

yeah the car is 94 a4, with a fresh 355 p&p heads, hotcam, ewp. comp roller rockers.. took it to the track last time , it went low 13's 60 was a 2.3, had the salad shooters on there, and dry rot tires, did not hook. ...

and its not tuned. stock stall.... i know there's lots left in it.
hoping it makes at least 350 hp..

trying to get all this done in the next few weeks..
