I think the T-Ram is holding you back. You should sell it to me j/k

Re: T-ram 1/4 mile run

Accually I think it is holding him back those numbers are typical for a LTR setup. I have to say I never really liked that intake just to many twists and turns for the air to move through.

What's your altitude at that track?

Re: T-ram 1/4 mile run

I guess I am the only one here who thinks those are very good numbers for a naturally aspirated GTA with a 3571lb weight and a 355 with a relatively small cam. Good job!

Ocean level. I think there will be say about 0.2-0.3 secs to better with a proper launch/shifts. I took it ease with the burnout, not sure how the Spec would take the second gear burnout. Juice run would be about 11.8 at best.

I'm also wondering if a miniram would do any better. T-ram lower intake seems like easy to use with a custom made HSR.

Oh I wish my L98 would have been that fast......but if I were to change anything on that combo it would be the TES POS headers.
