what does this have to do with lazy 3.31 gears with a boss IM? anyone who is smart knows gearing will supply the IM only that much more. You want all the super top end, great go roll race. If your an M6 car unless you can bang gears like shaun 3.73 or a 3.90 is what your gonna need to get you moving hard with the IM. Hell I talked to shaun and at one time seemed very interested in 3.90's hell go to mod fords and talk to WBT the might not be liked by many but he knows what hes talking about
while your trapping low 12's a guy with a nice gear will be roasting your asses at the finish line
Wait I did have one! I sold it when I needed cash. What the **** are you talking about Shauns tune is animal, I had plenty of them myself, what I said was he dialed it in day after day, tweaked it here and there... are you sure you should be driving seeing how you have trouble readingWait a min here, so you havent even had a boss intake manifold?
Also what was the fastest that WBT got his manual to run? 11.6?
And finally your saying shaun doesnt take time in his tunes? I would disagree. My AED tune is a ****ing animal.

well get a tire and push it then but you wont do much better, maybe .3 at best, again youll be tapped out eventually.Umm if you are referring to my 12.1 it was done on stock 235 tires not slicks. But you already have some axe to grind so I will just let you put your own foot in your mouth when I post the results...
My 3.73's are going in tonight cant wait to see the results
Just wait, report back do u have a boss im?? If so watch how fast the rpms rise

and WBT did run an 11.6 but corrected (if it were at or under sea level)it would have been a 11.2 because the car wasn't dialed in, mods listed below
BBK shorties
Boss intake w/updated tune
Alum. D/S
RAM dual disc clutch with alum. flywheel
CHE UCA, LCA relo brackets and UCA mount
Magnaflow cat-back
3.90 gears on 28" talls
regardless, its still faster then that low 12 /high 11 your running on with 3.31 lazy gear gear it and you should see a nice improvement, if you looking for all the top end you can get then keep it but I doubt any manual car with a Boss IM and a other mods will be able to do better then 11.6. I think Mike has 11.79 with his 3.31 but im sure hes about tapped out with them
I personally enjoy 3:31's with the boss IM. Is it going to get the best 1/4 mile time? Prob not, depends on what you want. I personally prefer spontaneous races on the street be it a dig race or a roll race. 3:73+ Isn't going to be fun trying to hook on the street. I can break 315 DR's loose from a 1st gear roll with 3:31's.... I've raced a few 3:73 cars from digs/rolls seem to do just fine.
When you own a Procharged Gen 1 for 10 years and get 8MPG HWY(5MPG if you're getting on it) You tend to like being able to throw it in 6th and get 26/27 MPG. "Lazy Gear" or not a lot of guys swapping out of 3:73's to go to 3:31's once they go FI. So, if it's hurting you a tenth or 2 who really cares?! always someone out there faster than you are.
Damn I cant believe you went this far with it.
I run 3.73's anyways but 3.31's are just fine with a boss intake.

Yes they are, if you want to get that car moving you will want them! Faster into the power band is never a bad thing
says none of the guys with 373's and boost.
