Despite spinning completely through 1st and part of 2nd gear, I accomplished a new best time. Tires were Nitto 555's at about 23psi. Here are the stats:

60' - 2.107
1/8 mi et - 9.186
1/8 mi mph - 76.85
1/4 mi et - 14.229
1/4 mi mph - 98.05

Not too shabby given the crappy traction. I spun worse through 1st this trip than any other trip to the track. I blame that on my newfound power. Not that I am complaining..... Next up are some 275/40/17 Nitto DR's.

Shouldn't have been spinning too bad with a 2.1 60 ft. Well...are those Nitto's drag radials, or just street tires? If they were street tires, the 60 ft won't get much better. Maybe 2.0 or 1.9 if perfect. If they are drag radials, then yeah...could be much better. You should be able to run 13.8 or 13.9 with a 2.0 60 ft and powershifting. Nice job.
 
How about bottom end torque?

I notice the dyno #s only went down to to 4k. What about at lower rpm's? I have an Automatic and we need torque as well off the bottom. Did this swap work there too? It sounds like it if you spun all the way through 1st and 2nd.
