A better 60' time will help. I've been told every .1 second faster on the 60' eguals .2 on the ET. With a full interior and that big system you're giving away time. Every 100 lbs you lose equals .1 second faster. The last time at the track I ran 15.01 with the passanger seat and G/F in it. Took the seat and her out and ran 14.82. Currently the car has a 2.0 DOHC with bolt-ons, and shows 117,000 miles on the odometer. It smokes a little on the top end of the RPM's. The car is an ACR to start with, and it's pretty well gutted. I'll bet chippdog's car is pretty light and he cuts 2.0 or 2.1 60' times IIRC. You probably have the power, but weight is hurting you.

The worst thing is I had no system or back seats :shock: Last time I wieghted all that it was 215 pounds. One thing I can think of is when the gas is all the way down the jeep tb butterfly isnt straight up and down. The cable is too long.

On my gtech It says I lose horsepower about 5,300. I was shifting at what chip was around 6500. I shift now at 1-2 6500 and about 6200 for the rest. That was my best run when I did that.

Cuz that's all I have at the moment, 2.4 got some serious rod knock and I'm gonna blow it up today. I got 2 SOHC bottom ends sitting in my sister's garage (and 4 SOHC heads), a complete SOHC engine in Circle Jerk, and a decked DOHC head. So I'm taking the SOHC out of Circle Jerk, swapping heads (mainly so I don't have to fuck around with as much wiring and the exhaust) and dropping it in.

Also picking up a brand new 2.4L shortblock for $350 soon and have some stuff in store for that one. 22's and MS for starters :)
