[2011/5.0]

I would have went 4c or 5c unless your going fi.

 

[kingcobra323]

Really no FI. My best 60ft has been 1.61 on nt05r in better da like 1400ft On the hoosiers 1.63 in 1900ft.

Replace the 3C, skip right past the 4C & 5C, and ask Chris at Circle D to make you a converter that flashes to about 5,000 rpm's. Worked great for my '14 GT with fewer mods than you have and my car is nearly 200 lbs heavier than your car with me in it (3850 lbs with me in it).

How about some Viking shocks? Is it still on the stock ones?

How is driveability with the 3.15s and that Convertor. I didn't know that the 3c was such a mediocre convertor. I was thinking of having it restalled to a 4c. Thanks

Yeah still on stock shocks. Do u think my eibach prokit springs are hurting me also?

Driveability is awesome. I had my current 5,000 rpm 4E Circle D convertor with the 3.15's for a little while, then switched to 4.10 gears. Both gearsets work well with the big convertor. My car is a true daily driver and is docile on the street until you mash the gas pedal, then hold on tight!

 

[kingcobra323]

Dang that's awesome to hear. So 4e. Is what I should ask for

Well, they're not drag springs, but they don't seem to be too detrimental to ETs... but I have a customer who runs 10s NA Auto, and I know he says the Viking shocks made a noticeable difference. He typically 60-foots around 1.50 on 275/60s.

 

[kingcobra323]

Damn that's awesome 60ft.

Tell Chris at Circle-D that you want a stall speed around 5,000 rpm's. He'll likely put you into a 4E or something similar. Alternatively, he can likely restall your 3C to 5,000 rpm's if you send it to him.

 

[kingcobra323]

Nice I'm gonna call him about the restall

 

[kingcobra323]

Just ordered kooks 1 3/4 long tubes and baby cobra jet exhaust cams. Gonna try this for power. Then ill go higher stall
