hello guys,
I am newbie here, so maybe Ill ask some dumb already 100x asked questions - but Iv checked the forums and cant find my answers...
Also please excuse my bad english.
Almost 3 years I am buliding my Mustang 2005, bellow please find very short list of main changes and modifications.
Now i am on 600hp and 810Tq and best 1/4time 11.9 - and I am stuck there...
I think I should have a beter time, but I am not sure.
My main actual question is about gear ratio, tire preasure, shift point and launch RPM.
(My final goal is 1/4 time 10.xx, but its a long way, I know.)
(I still think that I should get more HP from this engine, but I am stuck there aswell)
Ill be glad for any advices, thank you in advance!

Shift point 6000 RPM (limeter 7000 RPM)
Launch RPM 2800
Tire preasure 8 psi
If you check my time slips, yesterday Iv started on 12,4sec and ended on 11.915 sec (1.815 6oft)
(we changed only launch RPM and tire preasure during the day)
but my max speed is still almost exactly 195 km/h - and I dont know why.
I cant improve my 1/4mile time anymore.
I have few questions:
==1==
with 600hp and 810Tq, should I still go with 4.1 gear ratio?
==2==
I think that 2800 launch RPM is far too low - but with this tires tire preasure I cant go higher
any advice?
==3==
generally, I would like to ask you for any advices, how to improve my 1/4 time with this car configuration, or what changes are you recomending.
==4==
if you check the dyna graph, what shift RPM can you recomend?
...and:
I am doing something wrong - or I simply cant go faster with 600hp?
Thank you very much for your help!
Tomas
