Big stall, more boost, a tune, and taking my 22s off should definately put it in the 13s I think. |
please correct me if im wrong, but i thought the purpose of a higher stall torque converter was so that you could launch at a higher rpm.
if thats true, it wont really help at all with your 1/4 times because if you launch at anything over probably 1500 rpm tops, you will just spin away... the only way to take advantage of it would be to make your truck so that it wouldnt spin much on a 3000 rpm launch. that would take traction bars and slicks at the very least. and not to mention that actually hooking at that rpm would probably be snapping u joints and bending driveshafts and so on...
im not trying to be negative, but i just dont want you to think that that torque converter is going to help your times unless you are more heavily modded. again, if im wrong please let me know
but traction IS the key, and can easily mean a half second difference even without a high stall torque coverter. if you can add some more ponies and find a way not to spin at a decent launch, 13's should be possible
