Agreed on getting your 60ft times down, this will make a big change, but congrats on your times. If it makes you feel any better the first time I took my car to the track I ran a 15.6 with a 2.5 60ft time:pity: people were :tease: at me, of course I didn't really launch the car it was just from idle. Keep working at it and you'll get the hang of it.
p.s. Since that time I have never had my car at a 1/4mi track only 1/8mi. and have not made a good run yet.:notgood:

I agree, if you're going to put on an exhaust kit...go with a turbo-back. I had a pretty descent run this past weekend.

R/T............ .054
