Not enough info...try again.

[superbean]

You will gain a loud headache and prob run 12.5's at 111

[88_FiveOh]

no need for open headers. use the power you have. your mph is there for 12's just need to get the car to leave

[R0B0T]

what heads/intake/exhaust do you have on the car now?

[R0B0T]

also i have long tube headers going into (cut to fit) stock h pipe and mufflers.
i have only sprayed a 150 shot with the exhaust on, next track outing will be open headers to see what happens.

[302Army187]

personally i wouldent spray on street tire's, unless the "street" tires your talking about are mickey thompson ET street radials

probably not as much as you'd gain with a pair of sticky tires

yes.

heres of picture of my GHETTO exhaust, i think i should gain a little with open headers LOL

[baine21225]

if your going to run slicks, do you have sf connectors? torque box reinforcement? if not i'd hold on the slicks unless you wanna go for the pretzel look

[grnstang]

you should be fine if you have subframe connectors welded and on. i dont think reinforcing your torque boxes is totally neccessary yet...are you planning on launching on nitrous?

with slicks, it absolutely is necessary, that is unless you like having to go back and do more work than you would have had to do to reinforce them in the first place.

an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
