    Line Locks

    I have good luck with the motoblue kit. Its really easy to put in with all of the lines pre-bent. I have used mine at the track for over a year, no problems at all. http://www.rpmoutlet.com/05gtsteel2.htm#66 The only thing is the switch that is supplied is junk, I just went to radio shack...

    meizrie electric water pump

    I run one because I have a supercharger---so if I toss a belt for some reason, I can still drive the car to get someplace safe. With the stock water pump, if you throw a belt your going to overheat in minutes. I know one guy that was able to drive 20 minutes and make it home only because he...

    Manual Trans ONLY

    You also have to remember that the stock 5speed auto can't handle alot of power. When I went with 13psi, the stock converter started locking and unlocking on the big end. Also, I have had my auto gone through with billet servos, some other stuff to be able to hold 600rwhp with reliability.

    Dyno #'s..

    No, the tire I use is the Racemaster drag radial. It drives good on the street to, as long as you have like 28-30 psi in them. But they do suck in the rain. In my opinion they are the best dot legal drag radial made. I lift the front wheels with them all the time...

    Dyno #'s..

    For the street and handling---I am the wrong person to talk to. I have a one track mind, go fast in a straight line. Talk to some autocross / road racing guys for that. Hopefully someone will chime in.

    Dyno #'s..

    How about just getting two 17X9 wheels and mounting the M&H's on those for the track? I think you would have to do something like that anyway because the drag radials certainly are not for handling. And the M&H 325 will fit on a 9 wide rim because the M&H runs narrow--its more like a 295 at...

    Dyno #'s..

    I would also consider the 325/45/17 M&H drag radial. Thats what I use and I just pulled a new best 60' at Irwindale thursday night, a 1.473. I street drive with them all the time, just wouldn't recommend them in the rain.

    Colder Plugs

    I didn't notice a difference n/a while running a colder plug. I DID notice a drop off in performance, however, when I gapped down the plug from the stock .045 to .035 when I decided to run the 150 shot. I definitely felt a decrease in power n/a when I did that. If your running the 75 to...

    Nitrous guys

    Well a couple years ago I had the zex system on my car. I started with the 100 shot and it was very reliable. I ran Ht0 plugs and turned mid 12's @ 110 with an auto. Never lost a plug on this setting, but I was running the HT0, not the HT1. Tune was a mail order Brenspeed tune. Then after a...

    My favorite pic What do you plan on running for a street tire? Can the wheelie bars be removed?

    What gears for a 08 GT

    Actually I think we are saying the same thing then. ---Because I totally agree, 4.10s without the proper setup will hurt you, not help. To take your example, if you threw on a whipple at 10psi, put on 4.10s, then showed up at the track with street tires and a stock suspension, you would be...

    What gears for a 08 GT

    I have seen the exact opposite. I run 4.10's and I 60' 1.49. I have a friend with a whipple at 18psi, with 3.73's and can only 60' in the high 1.5's. I think the problem is if your going 4.10s with alot of boost, you better have the tire and suspension to put the power to the ground. If you...

    What gears for a 08 GT

    Well, put it this way. My 4.10's with a 28 tall tire is like a 3.90 gear with a 26.5 tall tire. Here is a calculator that will help you see the difference. You will need to know the diameter of the tire, then divide by 2 to get the RADIUS. You will also need to know the overdrive ratio...

    What gears for a 08 GT

    Don't forget---it also depends on how tall of a tire you are going to run. I would agree with the above statement with a 26 tall, but not a 28 tall.

    What gears for a 08 GT

    Are you going with aftermarket wheels/tires in the future? And if you are, any idea how tall of a tire you are going to go with in the rear? I run 4.10's with a 28 tall tire and its perfect. I have 71K miles on the car, daily driver, no problem at all.

    LT Headers?

    It is generally accepted that shorties are worth little to no rwhp over stock. I went with dynatech 1 3/4 inch primary pipe to a 3 inch collector. They work very well with the whipple at 16psi. However, when I first got them last year I had nitrous at the time. Back then my best 1/8th et...

    Who's moddin up for the '09 slowmaro

    I am ready, but I didn't do it only for the Camaro, I am ready for the Challenger to. Actually I am glad these are coming out, will make things a little more interesting at the track.

    Supercharger recommendations?

    Yeah, sorry about that, when I first read your posts, I thought you were talking about 500 rwhp. I still stand by what I said earlier, at 500 rwhp you would be on borrowed time. However, I did not realize you were talking about horsepower at the flywheel. So to sum up, keep it below...

    Supercharger recommendations?

    A larger pulley is all that is needed. Go with the 10 psi kit, I think you will be fine. Just have a conservative tune with conservative timing at WOT.
