We will see.
Have not got a quarter mile time on it yet. i have a Torsen t2r differential that does not like hard launches. i will get a time out of it. I would be satisfied with high 11's. Low 11's, I do not know, but thanks for the vote of confidence. My Michelin Super Sports grip as a god as street tire is gonna grip. As to shifting at 7500. First it is a tuning challenge just to get the engine to spin at 7500. Second I highly recommend A shifter and bracket to stabilize your shifts. I have shifted at 75-7600 no problems except 1st to second can be a litlle gamey and I usually make that shift at 71-7200. My car is more built for the track but it is plenty fast on the street. I make peak torque at 6750 rpm but torque and hp come on at 4000 and pull right to 7700 which is our tuning limit. Making horsepower at high rpms is fun. Some people on here talking knuckle dragger talk about torque down low. They should not kid themselves, Horsepower is what counts unless you are racing 10 feet. Being able to change gears at high rpms allows you to take advantage of momentum. Regardless of torque, a flywheel spinning at 7600 rpm prior to shift is carrying substantially more energy than a flywheel spinning at 6800. So far my clutch has handled it pretty well.

Not to get of topic but what 1/4 mile times have you run with your setup? Should be low 11's on street tires and high 10's with drag radials correct?
Great Job on the NA HP #'s!
