Thread: input on performance goal

i think that setup will net you mid 14's, and good move on not dropping a pulley until you can scan for knock.

104's would be too cold.

Try 605's.

IMO I'd skip the 180º thermo aswell, 195º works just fine. Lower tstat is I guess only a piece of mind type of thing today and a slight drop in mpgs can happen because its always running colder. If you're gunna be hot lapping it then a 180 may be a good idea, but for a DD I doubt you will be.

And just make a intake, dont buy one.

if you dropped to a 3.5/3.6 pulley that would be a good plug to use.

Probably wouldn't need 104's until you could get down to 3.5"/3.4" pulley... intake, headers, 1.9 ROCKERS, and a tune, minimum. 605's would probably be good for intake, headrs, tune, 3.6" pulley.

Remember: If you're not scanning for knock retard, you're doing it wrong.

low 14's?

Put on slicks.

Take to track.

Pray you don't shred an input shaft, and if you hook, say hi to mid 13's with those 3.29's.

Depending on track prep, I was able to get countless sub 2.0 and 1.9 60's with stock Bridgestone Potenza's...225/60/16. It's all in teh dryvurmod
