i dont think well. you will run a high ten with that power in good air -700 if your set up correctly for racing. i did in a-4 with less torque and about same rwhp. close to my old setup what you have there.

I had 434/400 and could only get a 11.3 in good air. That was with 390 gear, six speed and 1.47 sixty foot time...

you dont suck at life,when challenges are hard and we overcome them a great sense of fullfilment and peace with ones self is felt keep trying. i ran many 11.3's until the change to 3.73's with a 3600 stall. and then ran a bunch of these 11.03, 11.1 , 11.08,11.01 etc till the magic 10.997 pass also a 10.998 and 10.974 right after, took out passenger seat and thats what did. i know ive set a lofty goal for myself for mir and will need perfect weather and a perfectly setup and driven car to achieve.

My car is a Vert and the local track wont let a Vert faster than 13.49 without a roll bar. No plans for a roll bar, so no plans to hit the track. I know I have an 11sec car and it is a pleasure to drive.

What MPH were you 11sec guys trapping at?
