Drag racing this weekend. improve time?
We got a 15.45 with whats done to the first truck in my sig. i was thinkin we could undo the clamp where the downpipe and the exhuast connect and wire the exhaust up so exhaust exits right out of the downpipe and avoids the stock 3 inch exhuast. you think this will help??
If your truck has the automatic transmission fluid heat exchanger that's mounted under the turbo, pinch closed one of the two engine coolant lines that supplies the exchanger. It'll keep the fluid temps cooler, thus thicker fluid, thus a little tighter connection.

i will look, but what do you mean a little tighter connection. you mean like shifts?
Not sure about the exhaust. I usually make sure to have all the extra crap cleaned up out of the truck, take out bed liner if equipped, tailgate, tools, tool box etc. That stuff all adds up. I try to make sure I dont have a full tank of gas as that fuel is heavy as well. How bad are you spinning? Im in the same boat as you with the open diff, it sucks!! Do you still have the stock converter?

tooo much torque. you have to take it easy off the line. Also sometimes i do a burnout and get pass. tire heated up but then i floor it out off the line and the not heated dr. tire spins
... i have stock converter but the trans has a shift kit and synthetic fluid.
