Question What should I be runnin?

I have a stock 1998 V6 5 Speed. No modifications. On TigerPaw tires (Never heard of them. By the way, are they good tires? Last owner had them put on new.) What should I be running in the quarter mile?

Plus, does anyone have the RWHP and Fly Wheel Horsepower. I think it should be around 150 HP and 215 Ft.-Lbs. of torque.

Thanks.
Matt.

Tiger paws are made by Uniroyal. It's a passenger type car tire. (family type vehicles) If they are good save a few bucks and leave em' alone or better yet sell them and but a more performance oriented tire.

Hey Dom
"Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, Torque is how far you take the wall with you."

How about "Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, Torque is how far your rear bumper ends up from the wall"
