.047 n2o, .028 fuel, I cant go past 125hp with the shitty solenoids I have, thats why I was thinking a 2nd stage, mabe 2)100 hp shots, one off the line the other at 4000rpms, or somthing like that. I'm kinda leaning twards the gears and axles though.

I would say definitely a lower gear...What RPM are you going through the traps at?
What tires/slicks/DRs are you using? Have you ever messed around with tire pressure. (just cheap things you can do to try to get a few hundreths or so)

I cant recall, It's just a hair over 5k, but I know its low and I know i have room for the 3.90. I use ET streets, not the radials but the regular ET streets, I have tried sooooooooooooo freaking hard to get a 11.99 or better, I just added the intake and injectors and maf so mabe I'll freaking get it the next time at the track....knock....knock.

no not..true..you can get the axles for bout $500..and you can cheap you're ass around for rotors and drums..wheels you can get dirt cheap..but that for shit looking wheels..then it will be $1000+ if you get a decent set of 5lug wheels..

you can get axels for about 250,if he goes 31 spline he can get a carrier for anywhere from 300 on up,a locker is like 600.wheels just depends probably 600- however much you want to spend.5 lug drums 100,rotors you can get new for an 82-84 baby lincoln and work fine about 80 somethin dollars a piece.

I was gonna get 28 spline 4 lug axles, I figure with a better alloy I could keep all my stock stuff, I do have the MK7 5 lug front swap in my garrage, I just don't wanna put them on cause the 95 spindles are better for not having your hubs hanging out, I like the stock look anyway. I just rebuilt me track-lock a short time ago, and I'm prolly the biggest cheap ass there is.

I'm trying to get by and keep it under $400, that means no carrier, and no 31 splines. Anyway I'm gonna call it a done car once it gets in the 11s on a regular basis.
