    Why Can't I launch right?

    I have Traction Action Bars and MT ET Street Drag Radials 255/55/16. I was at the track this weekend and I tried to launch at 4500RPM's and all I did was spin tires but if I launch at 3500 the car wants to fall on it's face. I think I need to launch around 3800RPM. The car has been dynoed at...

    Right now I have my timing set at 32 degrees adv. I have heard that the ECU will only allow the timing to advanced to 24 degrees? Is this true?

    tremec 3550 + 3.73 gears= dissapointment???

    I just installed my tremec 3550 in my stang with 3.73 gears. At 65 MPH in 5th gear I am at 2000 RPM?!?!?!? What is going on?? It has made my 3.73's feel like a 3.55 or something like that.

    Idling problems?

    Yes the mass air is calibrated for the 30lb injectors. the reason why I went with the 30lb instead of the 24 is because I will eventually be shooting 150shot of NOS. Trickflow says that the timing should be set at 32-34 degrees.??? or am I wrong?

    DO MUCH PAINTING??

    Ok, time for another professional painter to step in here. LOL. I would recommend using an HVLP gun just for the fact that you get somewhere around 70% of the material on the panel and the other 30% goes in the air. So basiclly you don't waster material. Basecoat/Cleacoat is the way to go...
