Very happy with the way the car feels now! :D
No real seat of the pants feel at first, but after about 50mi. or so of spirited driving, I can tell the difference. :drive:
Much better throttle response, more pull through mid-range, and overall smoother feel and response when shifting through the gears.:2tu: :headbang:

here is a quick review of how and were I do my 1/4 mile testing as well as other cars ive tested the same way

SORRY THAT NO TRACK IS AVAILABLE ON MY ISLAND AND ALL I HAVE IS MY CIRCUIT CITY FX2 TIMER...(always the same exact location a outstanding 1/4 mile spot that I have been useing for about 8 years now.......


1000 feet elevation
65-75 degree hawaiian weather

And with the same circuit city FX2 timer I have been using for 8 years

(tested at actual drag strip for accurracy and found that the 60 ft is 100% accuartae and the 1/8 mile is 99% accurate and the 1/4 mile is usually off by 1.5 mph and 1.5 tenths...But sometimes dead on)...

The following cars have been tested at this location useing my FX2 timer

-98 supercharged auto camaro=14.9 at 93 mph( best ever at drag strip=15.1 at 91 mph)

-stock 2004 auto corvette=13.3 at 105 mph(best ever at drag strip=13.5 at 104)

-stock manual 2005 nsx=13.1 at 107 mph( no drag strip runs)

-stage1 auto E55AMG=12.5 at 111 mph (best ever drag strip 12.7 at 110 mph)

-Mild head and cam auto corvette=12.6 at 113 (best ever drag strip=12.8 at 111)

-1999 Viper stock 410 rwhp=12.4 at 117 (no drag strip runs)

-1999 Viper with bolt ons and 445 rwhp=12.0 at 121 mph (no drag strip runs)

-Then my 465 rwhp srt10=11.8 at 122 mph ( no drag strip runs)




You can see on my first outing trying to learn the car I sucked pretty badly..LOL

2003 srt10 with roller rockers and kn filters at 459 rwhp

1-12.7 @ 114
2-12.4 @ 115
3-12.4 @ 116
4-12.5 @ 115.6
5-12.4 @ 115

Man this car ***** I thought...Litte did I know that I was shifting when that darn yellow arrow appeared and really to early at 5500 rpm's or so

Tried shifting a lil later
6-12.4 @ 117.9

And then a lil later

7-12.37 @ 119.0
8-12.25 @ 119.3

And then on my 9th and final run shifting right before red line I clicked off a

9-12.08 @ 118.9 1.93 60 ft 7.9 @ 91.3 1/8
0-60 mph in 4.13

Very happy with the ET but dissapointed in the 119 max trapps I called it a night

Went back at it again a few days later( KN filters and roller rockers) 459/492 SAE

I baby shifted on these runs trying to see if I could hit 120 mph trapps

10-12.77 @ 115.6
11- 12.75 @ 118.1
12-12.43 @ 120.2

YEA BABY a 120 trapp..Not to shabby and I called it a night

Went back out on another night( kn filters and roller rockers) 459/492 SAE

Tonight I wanted an 11 second pass and was all buisness


13- 12.5 at 115.9 getting warmed up
14- 12.4 @ 117.8
15-12.26 @ 119.2
16- 12.1 @ 120.5

17- 11.97 @ 121.3 60 ft 1.97 7.9 @ 93.5 1/8 0-60=4.05 !!!!!!!!! HELL YEA best ever with kn filter and roller rockers

18-12.1 @ 120.2
19-12.1 @ 120.1
20- 12.05 @ 122.2 ( highest mph yet)!!!!!!!!!!
21- 12.08 @ 121.4

Then I called it a night...

( kn filters and roller rockers plus cat/muffler delete) ???rwhp???rwt...added the cat/muffler delete and went back at it


22- 12.22 @ 119.6
23- 12.13 @ 118.8
24- 12.03 @ 120.6
25- 11.95 @ 121.9
26- 11.78 @ 124 DECIDED TO NOT COUNT THIS RUN AS I COULDNT BACK IT UP
27- 11.92 @ 121.7
28- 11.92 @ 121.5

Kn filters and roller rockers plus cat/muffler delete and removal of rain baffle...rwhp??? rwt???


29- 12.2 @ 121.9
30- 12.1 @ 120.4
31- 12.0 @ 120.5
32- 11.88@ 122.3 2.0 60 ft fastest ever WITH LOTS OF 11.9'S AND 121 MPH TRAPPS TO BACK IT UP

well honestly it seems like removeing the rain baffle gave me maybe a .5 mph benifit....looks like I was 120-122 mph all night...but befor removing the rain baffle MY runs would be in the 119.5-121.7 range


So I hope to add my sct tune verses stock tune results soon
