Catless X pipe
ID1000s with E85 tune from AED

Drag pack (275/60/15 Rear)
Weight reduction (No rear seat, one piece DS, tubular radiator support)
BMR suspension parts

Everything else is stock including a 3.15 gear, intake tube/filter and manifold, headers, OAP and axle back, trans and converter, etc.
Nice! Those are great times for a truly simple setup.

I put a couple of cars on it, he might get e85 soon, so I might need more power for that.

I need a few opinions on some possible upgrades, my car right now is trapping 103 in the 1\8th mile, I would like to trap 105 mph. I am thinking about upgrading my headers from 1 3\4 to either 1 7\8 or 2" , adding a ud pulley, I'm still on the stock balancer, and replacing my slp lid with a ftp 98mm lid , will this get me there? Or am I pissing up a rope? Car is a n\a ls2 f body with a t56.
