just worked a deal for a water temp gauge, volt gauge, a triple pillar, a narrow band (will be borrowing a wideband at first to make sure we are in spec ) and am installing them in a few weeks. will be getting an oil pressure gauge soon as well
i have an idea of 2 custom mounting places...ill reveal eventually

brakes i want are about 215$ for the rotors, 100$ for the brake lines, and 80$ for pads...but they will be AWESOME!!!!! those are to come when i have more money

woowwwwww... idk if it's possible for you to shift any slower over there grandma

still not seeing how you'd keep up with an lsj but i'll need to see some slips too see how clean that run was...

good times none the less.. broke into the 14's sooner then i did

... are you running smaller then stock tires? and whats your rev... if your tires are smaller .. get the right sized tires.. I had that issue too .. i ran my snow tires at the track.. and i was trapping 96 or so .. and had to shift into third..

with your cams.. the right size tires you should have a 7200 rev limiter or so and be able to keep it in 3rd

unless i get grossly oversized tires i wont be able to keep it in third lol
my tires are less then 1/2 in total diameter smaller from stock

and the cams have nothing to do with being able to stay in the same gear longer... ?:/?

well cams can produce the higher rpm power so you will want to not shift until some hundred rpms above stock.

and with stock 2.2 i trapped 89.89mph stock tune 6.5K rev limiter in 3rd gear with stock tires

im lookin to rev out to 7.5K n still be in third for trap... and spray ill see 4th lol

YOU NEED TO REDYNO once you get some cash saved up lol

exactly... your cams produce power to about 7500 if i remember correctly so extending your redline to 7200 will be in your benefit as you'll shift into your powerband.. any difference in tire size will make a difference .. a 7k redline should be able to get you to hit 94 mph in 3rd with stock tires... i've done it

not to mention higher 60's will make for higher traps..
