[QUOTE="Jam421, post: 15556181, member: 110985"] I did the 373's when I first got my '13 . My buddy who owns a stock gear '14 drove my car. As he was jumping on the gas he said my car felt " so much lighter". Maybe it's the front end lifting on the shocks as he stabbed it (:->) ? Now with 410's ( actually 390 due to tall tire) I can roll at 15/20/25/30 and STAB the pedal in 2nd ..anywhere between 2100-2600 rpms the car dead hooks with 25psi MT's. The key is " stab it" like you're stomping a wasp. 3rd gear at redline ...no lift off gas...dead hook. My wife has an aftermarket headrest for just these occasions. Back on topic....A friend of mine has a most awesome Black with Titanium stripe '07. That car makes BIG power and looks like a sleek predator on the street and sounds wicked. Another buddy has a showroom White with Blue stripe '07... MT's on 20's making high 600's HP . Anyone trying to knock him off a red light with his 373's was in for quite a surprise ! He went up to 410's but is now planning back to 373's because....wait for it ....Trinity upgrade !! Best bang for the buck from FRPP incl.CJ 65TB, stock elbow, 2.67 upper for $2700..Wow. Bottom line : GT500's are awesome cars no matter the year...they rock . 2TONSOFUN! [/QUOTE]
