I have a few concerns.. #1 being that i want to trap atleast 100-105 is this possible with a 75 shot? my current mods are y-pipe, and custom exhaust.. ET doesnt mean much to me b/c we're all aware of the traction issues .. so my goal is MPH.. any tips would be helpful.. Thanks 99 CSVT #91 - Silver Frost 2 3/4 Custom Exhaust Sho-Shop Y Pipe/Catless B & M Shifter VCN-2000

Slap a somewhat modified 3L in there and run that 75 shot and you'll see those #'s. I know on my 3L setup, I ran a 14.6 @ 97.55mph... I'm not too happy with the 14.6, but the 97.55mph is pretty good comparing to others with similar times. I will most likely be running a Venom Kit this summer, so I'll probably be able to let everyone know what ET/Trap Speeds are possible. Mark 2000 Black CSVT 3.0L Hybrid - 206fwhp & 195fwtq
