Looks like a low 14 sec. car to me. Get those 4.10's in there and I'll say mid 14's unless you get some sticky tires :icon_pale

I dont know why people have problems with 4.10's and street tires.....
I have the Nitto 555 streets and I can hook with a lil spin with 4.10's.....my 60' before the 4.10's were averaging 2.2 now im at 2.0's......and my 1/4 time has gotten better and I knocked off 3 tenths off the 1/4 mile.....
Learn to drive people..

It probably just takes time to learn the car and launch just right. I haven't launched my car yet so I want to wait for the gears...does anyone know if there is like a break in method for the gears?

I can't wait...I heard you should drive easy for like 15 mins then stop and let the car cool down...you should do this like 3 times then drive however you want.

there's beena discussion on this before. Some say yes some say no. Just listen to what the person who installs them tells you.
