    too rich?

    This guy is correct. Too rich is bad, but not as bad as too lean. I was running at 13.5 at anything over 5200 rpm until I got retuned with a bigger MAF. Now I'm in the 11.5-12.7 range.

    411's

    Sounds like a good idea, I will. Where abouts are you in NJ? I'm up in the northwest, got most of my work done at Crazy Horse Racing in South Amboy, about a 35 mile drive.

    Speedo Calibration question

    It has to do with the automatic transmissions shift points and the computer misreading them. I read an article in MM&FF awhile ago, I will see if I can find it, but thats gonna be dificult because I have about 100 issues lying around.

    Speedo Calibration question

    You are going to ruin your tranny if you don't get the speedo calibrated, and I'm too tired to explain why, but this only applies to those with automatics, just talk to a reputable tuner.

    411's

    I agree wholeheartedly... I have 373's and if I push it with the blower I might hit 125 at the top of 4th. He has the Cobra tranny, I forget what it's called, and it's probably geared a little different then our GT's, but not by that much... he be full of crap.

    411's

    His rear is stock except for the gear swap. He claims he has 610hp at the wheels, with no internal mods. Anyway, I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but IF he had 410's in the rear, what would he top out at in 4th gear with the Cobra's 6 speed tranny?? He claims to go thru the traps at 140mph...

    411's

    A guy at work has an '03 Cobra, and he insists that he has 411's in the rear. Aren't 411's a GM gear size?? Would they even fit? I said to him, are you sure they're not 410's and he said yes. He also claims to run low 10's on street tires, I call BS on that one. Oh, and he has a KB...

    CD Error HELP

    The only problem I ever had with the 6 cd unit is mine has 7 discs in it, and I don't know where the extra disc went. The unit still works fine though.

    To anyone who has 3.73s

    That's nuts, Chris at Crazy Horse Racing installed my 373's in about an hour. That was almost 3 years ago, and no problems. It sounds like your guy doesn't know what he's doing.

    When do gears lose their advantage?

    you can't "hit the rev limiter" in 5th. With my supercharger I can hit 150 mph @4500 rpm in 5th. If I was able to redline it in 5th I'd be able to hit 200+ mph... I don't think that's gonna happen. Not a flame, I'll just assume that you know this, that's all.

    PLease HELP..why are my HP numbers so low?

    Why do you say that? I'm at 8 psi with my Novi2000 and I'm at 411 rwhp. It may sound stupid, but my guy at Crazy Horse Racing told me that some cars respond better to superchargers than others. I'm sure that my 75mm TB and C&L Intake help somewhat with airflow though.

    went to the dyno today...

    Holy crap!!!! That's a lot of weight! 3844 with you in it? How much do '96 verts weigh? I know my '03 vert has a curb weight of 3429, unless you weigh 415 those older verts are heavy as hell! 211.7 hp seems a little low, I'd think you'd be pushing at least 240rwhp, or about the same as my '03...

    ? for those with K&N filters

    I don't re-oil mine. I just ****can the old one when it's time and buy a new one. Why take chances, plus oiling them is a pain in the ass.

    i want gears!...future supercharger though...

    Thats a good trap speed bro... what was your et? Nice 60' too. From what I see at the track, anything under 2 seconds is good. Try staging as shallow as you can, believe it or not that little bit of rolling you do before you break the beam is good for at least a tenth, maybe 2.

    i want gears!...future supercharger though...

    This subject has been beaten to death. With 410's you might run out of gear at the track. You gotta shift into 5th at around 113- 115 with 410's, and by then you're out of the power band. That's cutting it pretty close if you're putting out decent power. I have 373's and with a good 60' time...

    4.56 Gears...who has them?

    I'd go with the 390's. At least you won't have to shift into 5th if you're running nitrous or a S/C, as you would with 410's. [ it could be close, depending on how much power you're making, you may have to hit 5th, may not]. Of course this all depends on if you take your car to the track, or...

    4.56 Gears...who has them?

    Red lines in 4th at around 106-107 mph with 430's, you'd run out of gear in the quarter. That's why I like my 373's, redline is right around 123-124 in 4th, perfect for my blown '03, she traps at about 112- 114.

    No ****, I'm making 411hp and I'm a little nervous.
