Mods for eighth/altitude
Hey everyone,
I mostly run the eighth mile, and I've got about $2000 bucks to modify my '01 6 speed coupe that currently has a blackwing and borla stingers...What mods would help me the most in an eighth mile setting? I was thinking $1500 to upgrade to 4.10 gears, and then the remainder used to buy a set of wagon wheels with nitto drag radials for the strip...Any suggestions as to how much this'll help my eighth time out, or possibly suggestions on a better course of action? Also, the car will be taken up to high altitude soon (around 6500 feet), so are there any mods that are more altitude resistant in terms of creating power? I figured the gears would be a good choice since they don't have anything to do with air, but rather mechanics
Thanks,
Tommy
