calling spiro

Hey spiro, I am running a 100 shot of n20 but I am still spinning very bad. Do you have any sugestions on launching my truck. I ran a best of 12.085@111 with a 1.95 60ft on mickey thompson E.t streets. The mph was down I belive because of the low tire pressure of 13lbs. I have a best mph of 117.

Cant you ask someone else LOL j/k it's a joke.

Well from what I see, your running pretty good to me. I personally launch at around 1300 rpm on the stock convertor, and with the proper weight balance, I have achieved 60' in the 1.66-1.75 range with big meety 28 x 12.5 x 15 ET STREETS at my 4700 lb race weight.

I dont think the 13 lbs of air pressure caused you to loose 6 mph. Weather conditions could throw off your mph, but a bad 60' compared to a good 60' will yield similar mph's at the top end of the 1320.

Basically, if havent. Remove sway bar, relocate battery, and add some tire pressure. I'm assuming your running the same wheels as me, since I purchsed from the same people JDM do. They are heavy wheels, and will work very well for you.

I'll send you mail on the pieces in the moring if thats cool. I think the COMPUCAR "bottle in a bag" is only a dry system. I DO NOT RECOMMEND A DRY SYSTEM on these trucks. They are not safe enough to run consistently. IMO

Not a problem. These L really like the "wet" system, and especially above the 100 shot jets. With a Dry, I would NOT run anything bigger than a 75...at the most!
