Over stock headers I'd say they helped. Again i have no dyno with them though.

Will see when the track opens in 2-3 wks. I'm close 12.3@114 with the juice with a weak 60ft.

I should definately be 12's N/A. Are you breaking in your car yet?

not yet, hoping to get everything buttoned up today, hopefully
if im in the 11s with a 150 shot, torque converter, and cutout at 4500ft elevation, i will be more than happy. id say you should be 11s pretty easy without having your floormat issue, lol

I forgot you live up in the mountains. I remember with just intake and exhaust back in 04 my car was running 14.2@100 in MS near sea level.

I moved to Socal added some mods went to LACR hoping 13's my car was running 15's in 5k+ elevation which to them was fast. That was my 1st time learning the effects of elevation/DA I thought something was wrong with my car at first.

Now I'm back on the east coast running low 13's @ or below sea level.

yea, elevation sucks big time! i hate it

do you remember which of these two trans cooler lines is the send and which is the return? i want to make sure and have the trans fluid go through my radiator first then my external cooler second then back to the trans.

How would those connect to your stock radiator if you still have it? Connect the trans cooler the same way hopefully that will answer your question. I'm not sure which one at the moment.

EDIT

just realized you are putting it in tandem with your radiator which I'm sure is not stock anymore so does it matter on which end it goes? The fluid will get cooled before or after the radiator.

I didn't think elevation made that big of difference on times.

to bad they closed down our track in Hawaii......I never did get to track my g

guess it makes sense cuz I ran 16.7-16.9 with my Acura legend and I know for a fact it wasn't nearly as quick as the g's
