Byron Drags/Fuel pump issues
Just a word to the wise, if you replace the fuel pumps don't reuse the stock clamps(plastic), one of the hoses blew off twice today(in tank hoses), causing the car to stumble.....replaced them at the track with standard hose clamps, next two runs were great:
-12.59@113.5
-12.54@117.25

Dominic did some incredible tuning on his, turned a 115+ 1/4 versus a 111+ last time we ran with no mod changes outside of his tune.
It was very hit and miss, hard to hook up on some runs, had one I did a burnout through the first two gears heading little sideways.

were you on street tires? are your gears stk. i am wondering if the 410 gears are really the best for drag racing? i have trouble launching even with mt et streets. allthough in all honesty it just could be my lack of talent

I am running on GSCs with 4:09, the most I can launch at is 1800/1900, if I get in the 2K range, I spin the tire through 1st/2nd.
Yesterday on one run an Acura TL kept up with me through the 1/8th because I was spinning so bad through the gears, finally hooked in 3rd and still managed a 114.6 trap.
my best 60ft is 2:06, with the X-pipe and Borla Resonator removed I am picking up some solid MPH and time after the 1/8th

I still have the mufflers, as long as I stay out of 6th its fine, I can talk on my cell and have no issues with someone hearing me. In my opinion it is what a 400+hp car should sound like.
6th is fine as long as you are cruising, once you start accelerating is when its gets noisy. If the radio is on it is not noticable. I don't use the radio much.
