Track times after "DRAGON" Plenum install, come on inside--->

[TacBear]

I installed:
a "Dragon" Plenum--performance mod
Aluminum D.S.---
Steeda LCA's---
Tokico 5-ways and lowered my ET. .231 seconds (average for 3 runs) and picked up 2 MPH (average of 3 runs)

I am still producing 2.0xx 60 ft. times, so I don't think the LCA's helped my ET. They are just making my 60 ft. times more consistent!

Before this install my ET./MPH (average of 4 runs) was 14.084@98 mph
Now it is [email protected] the "Dragon" Plenum Rocks!!!!

In fact I am getting a set of 3.73's for free and I have tried Powershifting a few times.

Congrats on the new times and BTW your car has always been one of my favorites.
How hard is it to install the LCA's...did you do it yourself?

I didn't do it myself (I helped) but it was easy

good times, im hoping to produce a 13.7-13.6 times with my mods and drag radials

did you factor weather into your times?

 

[TacBear]

did you factor weather into your times?

Yes, corrected to sea level would be 13.71@101

Wicked nice job...you're pretty much convinced me to get the Dragon...

Do you have a 70 or 75 MM throttle?

[StngStr]

Nice times.

 

[CrazyInBlack]

Very nice times bro. Glad those struts helped you

 

[sewisuri03gt]

what were your corrected times before the install?

 

[sewisuri03gt]

the reason i ask is because if i compare my previous best of [email protected] to my new best of [email protected] i could claim that the plenum/t.b. combo i just installed(only change to the car) gave me gains of almost 3/10 and 2.5mph but when comparing the runs (BOTH) corrected to factor DA i really only gained 1/10 and 1mph. are you comparing both runs with corrected times?

 

[RoadracerGT]

Yes I was there with the Bama Mafia, I remember seeing yours.

Do you know what happened to the yellow Mustang that was pushed off the staging lanes? I thought I saw him running mid/high 12's a couple passes before that.

The Dragon Aseriously good bang for the buck contender.Way to go Tacbear.I'm going to be down a T&J on the week end of the 29 give me a hollar if your around.

 

[TacBear]

what were your corrected times before the install?

I don't know what the corrected "before" times were.

Before my average times/MPH were 14.084@98 mph (4 runs)
-----------------------------After [email protected] mph (3 runs-13.850, 13.857 and 13.854)

60 ft times are a consistant 2.0xx. Even though I have Drag Radials I may never get a sub 2.0xx because of my suspension, it isn't the best for Drag Racing(i.e. 18"wheels, FR "C" Spring, etc.)
