next restriction-hawks tpi ram air needed?
 
well I am finally getting the car to hook at the track. I put some 90-10's up front and competition engineering shocks out back set at 70/30 and I cut a 1.68 60 ft and ran a 8.11 @ 82 1/8th and 12.87 @104 1/4 last wednesday in a DA of 2800

I am wondering if anybody has used the ram air setup before and had any results, I already have them and im going to install them next week, I have cleaned and grinded my airbox,gutted maf and have 58 tb,and use foam accell filters, just wondering if you think it is my next restriction or not . I lost to a 2011 mustang it ran 12.91 @ 107 (I red light, not used to car hooking yet :doh:). thanks in advance for your input

yea their ok, better than the stock stuff. The faster you go the more you beneifet. (spl)

I watched my afr lean up alil at the top of 3rd doing 100+ also match sure you have TB bypassed and your motor is set to run cool, maintaining a good water temp will be the deciding factor as well as under hood temps. heat soak will make any appreciable gains nill.

good to know, already have bypass, and a 160 stat and fan on at 180. I will let everybody know if it helps and report the Da for the time I ran also.

well been to the track since install of ram air, no help at all, ran a best of 12.83 but the weather was a little better, so I don't think it helped at all
