Hey ya'll i got a 2001 GT auto with some mods and of coarse i want to go faster. So do ya'll think it's possible to run high 11's with a NOS 125 wet shot and some cams and slicks with the mods i already have? cause there is some cobra's and fox bodies around here runnin juice and talkin trash and i want to make some money and shut them up!



I'm talkin about the 1/4 to so no confusion

You are talking about making some money at the track (1/4) and not on the street correct?? With the amount of post you have this should be a dumb question on my part.

Like Reggie said there is more to it. At glance I think you can use a 3.73 or 4.10 gear with that AOD to get better acceleration.

I hope i'm wrong .....

But this stinks of street racing.......

Just for the record i refuse to give any type of advice knowingly to street racers except to tell the dangers & stupidity of doing it......

Trust me ya'll my dad is the one putting up the money so it has to be at the track. And im scared of hurting other people to. So come on yall.

But i have 3.73's and i have auto that i drive on the highway a good bit so 4.10's are a bit to high i think.

but what other mods should i get to add to my current one's witch are K&N FIPK CAI, 3.73's, Underdrive pully's, Flowmaster 40's Muffler's, and a custom tune. I also have some slicks so getting out of the hole is no prob to. But i gues im really looking for whatever else little mod i can do to improve my e.t. like a stall tourque converter, or what im kinda stuck?

Ok not high 11's but i want to be able to run with lightly to mildly modded cobra's at the track witch is a 1/8 mile most of the time, so i just need some advice on what else to do to improve the performance of my car.

What is your budget? First thing I would swap are the heads.

Lower control arms, suspension to get traction. The driver mod will need a lot of practice on his launch. Just my .02

No i dont have subframe connectors, yet but i am going to get some. I want to lower it to so that should be almost enough to get LCA's,SFC's,and shocks cause i need some, but after all that i want to lower it so springs would be next so am i on the right track or what?
Thanks for the advice guys.
