Can't really give advice if we don't know what mph/gear/60' etc you are currently at.

Adding driver and passenger side Speed Genius prototype ram air snorkels.
Speed Genius prototype air box.
Bye bye injen intake, hello Speed Genius prototype intake.
Stock tb out, Speed Genius big throttle body in.
Small tb spacer out, Speed Genius big throttle body spacer in.
Crawford power blocks? Yes please!
Swapping out the Agency Power header for a ported inlets/outlet HKS EL catless header.
Also ditching the stock overpipe for a Perrin 2.5 overpipe port matched inlet and 2.75 outlet.
Drive Shaft Shop aluminum driveshaft.
Flex fuel kit / e85 tune

Im sure 20whp wont be 2 difficult with these changes
There you go... is that easier for your brain to process now? Did the light bulb go on yet? Or is it burnt out for good?

Should I post a link to the for sale thread for the 26" slicks you were commenting on?

I like how you claim whp numbers but contradict yourself by saying you haven't gotten you car dyno'd. Besides the fact that you come up with all these claimed reduction in ETs. How did you calculate those? With a stop watch?

The best part is you are worried about people copying "your design". Didn't know buying random intake parts from Autozone and Pepboys was considered making your own product.


But OK I'm done here. Just going to sit back and enjoy my popcorn.

He call you on your bullshit HP numbers, you stated as I've highlighted in bold for you " who claimed whp numbers?". He then went on to quote posts where you claimed 3 different "estimated" whp numbers, you then said "learn to read". Now who's as sharp as a marble? Do you see a common theme here? People hate on you on the Facebook group and now here........ You're the common denominator bud. Now go back to making your car more blue or making up ludicrous HP numbers based on nothing but speculation. There's more to drag racing than to just stick smaller tires on in a vain attempt to get gear reduction which BTW will probably hurt your mph and could cause you to have to shift to a gear at the 1000ft mark killing your et. But I'm as sharp as a marble, what do I know

U get so freaked out about an estimated whp number. Car is dynoed at 186whp. Am i not allowed to estimate a whp for the other mods im adding? I dont think 205whp is a ludicrous estimate. Ur just butthurt cause ur jealous for some reason. Maybe cause i can read? Idk. But just hop off my driveshaft kid. And yea please do post where i was saying im getting slicks. I wanted to buy his 15in rims

so yeah, post a time slip and what gear/rpm you finish the 1/4 at. trading lower 60ft only to lose some mph up top might not be ideal. If you get tiny tires you might have to shift into 5th. If you are in middle of 4th it might make sense to shorten the rolling diameter to get the revs up towards the top of 4th. its a ballance/trade off of getting more at the start or the end.

When asking about optimal wheel and tire size there is a lot of information needed. Having a dyno chart showing where the power actually is can determine what size you need. Too small of a tire will lead to spinning the tires off the line, too large will result in bogging. A car with 205 whp that favors lower end torque will need a slightly larger size then one that has mods leading to a lower amount of torque.

In the end, finish your build with the wheel/tire combo you have. Dyno it, take a few runs down the track and post those results here. When trying to optimize the power you have more information is better.

Remember, post known facts and you will get a lot less crap from everyone.
