ET's after torque converter install (predictions wanted)

leo i think you will see bigger than a 2 or 3 tenth gain in QUARTER mile times. Don stated you should gain a couple tenths in the 1/8th and everyone else started saying how much they gained in the 1/4. either way, expect a big improvement for what it's worth! i can't wait!

That's true. I didn't even think about it. There's always more gains in the 1/4 vs 1/8.

Well, the original question was about 1/8-mi times after all... right?

when do you get yours put in? and how much? and... when do you plan on hitting the track again with the setup? haha

Next Friday at ST Motorsports. $450 out the door but I'm bringing the ATF, filter, and gasket. I'm also getting a PA deep tranny pan put in. I'm going to Qualcomm on 4/3.

Well, the original question was about 1/8-mi times after all... right?

Yup.

Leo... are you going to be at Barona this Saturday, 3/21?

Also, on Friday, 4/3, Barona is running too. I'll be there instead of the Q.

San Diego County, more specifically Ramona.

 

[mikeysgt]

is that a 1/8 mile or 1/4 mile track? never heard much about that one. only Qualcomm, Fontana, and Irwindale down south.

1/8th mile. It's the only real track we have. Qualcomm is a parking lot.

 

[mikeysgt]

haha yeah i've heard about Qualcomm

 

[don_w]

No I won't be back to Barona til 5/1.

So, you're going to skip Barona and go to the Q on 4/3?

 

[Leo_06GT]

Crazy, I know but that's the plan
