What is your 1/4 mile time? ,etc. Those are the only numbers that count. It does no good to have a million horse power engine if you cannot translate that into speed. Get on the track and find out ! BTW I am very jealous of your numbers so far
i think you misunderstand why i posted this. i needed a baseline before i started modding and wanted feedback from some of the experienced modders here to see if the numbers were infact were they should be or was i in an underpowered car from the start.i didnt know that diff dynos show diff power. it was on here i learned that. seems im in good shape. if i had a choice i would choose let or eurocharged to dyno my car but they wont move to tn!!
as for 1/4 mile times the closest track is bowling green ky. i have never dragged at a track before and need more info before i go. and im waiting till the weather cools a bit to give me every edge i can get!! ballpark my 0 to 60 times are in the high 4 sec low 5 sec, but thats just a stopwatch and chalk line on a road by my house.
