3 tenths improvement. Be sure to make a log book and track information when you run. The weather can make a 2-3 tenth difference in your times which would negate most of your improvement if there was a big difference in the D.A. btweeen those outings.
The difference in your gearing isnt much when you think about it? but your other mods should of netted you a little more power. I would think especially with the O/R pipe and underdrive pullies?

I experienced the same problem as you my first time out this year! I changed gears from 3:73s to 4:10s added new Eaton posi and axles, subframe connectors, X2C upper & lower control arms, softer shocks in the rear, Added Trickflow upper plenum, went back to my stock CAI cause my MAC cai was leaning the car out a bit! pulled the front sway bar off and I ran 3 tenths slower, same miles per hour and my 60ft went from a 1.90 to a 2.1 :sad1:

But like "Blue02GT" said weather could be a very big factor?
