[QUOTE="olaosunt, post: 14492022, member: 131643"] I hear ya and know you guys are right but I was looking for the "easy button" by just throwing more power at it.lol I was lowered on K springs and my 60 ft's were in the high 1.6 range on the ET pros.I raised the back with older cobra jet springs(tried stock and they were crap) because I tried 29 inch Hoosier slicks-soft wall which were too tall and rubbed (The ET pros rubbed as well).Did not have much luck although I think I did not lower the psi enough(never went below 18) and they would bog.? too tall. They did hook once when i dumped the clutch as I Had been advised(I am used to slipping it with radials) but below is what happened to the CF when they hooked. lol I really like the ET pros.I have my Ford guys mount them and I drive them to the track with skinnies.I have driven up to 100 miles on them when I go up to Morroco and the ride is quite nice since they can be balanced. They do not seem to be wearing as fast as the Cheater slicks I tried before which stopped hooking after few passes and street miles. I am no expert(I am a novice actually) but I suspect the car would 60 ft better if I got rid of the rake by raising the front with the cobra front jet springs but the car would look like crap. I may have to try the "enhance stance springs" that are lower all around. My suspension mods are in the signature(I have not updated new cars and power train changes since the whipple snapped off the crank of my old 9.5 illuminator) I am taking any suggestions before I give up and put in the auto.lol I think I can launch harder than 4000 rpm on the 2 step but when I tried 4500 rpm the ET pros spun.It had gotten really cold by them and I am sure the track was getting wet as there was dew on my car. I may try the Hoosier slicks again(this time I will slip the clutch) at lower pressure as I am told psi has to be much lower with the slicks.I just don't like that sway at the end of the track but I tubes may fix that(Not going to invest in another pair of hardball slicks when I will going auto eventually ....or may be not.
