It would be worth stregthening your chassis - as this helps get traction. For example a full roll cage would weigh your car down, but make it heaps stronger - and potentially allow for better traction. Even a bar behind the radiator - between the two chassis rails would help, or perhaps a good old strut brace?Do you have some sort of cage? what speed do you have to install one at drags?
Guest xrtwpn Guests Posted 25/08/05 02:08 AM Posted 25/08/05 02:08 AM Like the new FMIC but those wheels!! I personally would of found a nice set of lightweight forged wheels. What wheels will you be dragging on?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Will be racing on slicks which are light weight remember this is for the street and only for looks Now that's a huge intercooler.And it has an additional engineering advantage... It's a counterweight to keep the front of the car on the ground! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just a few questions.You moved your raidiator overflow forward, why.Where is your air filter going to go.Last you have a cobra kit but no new cover over the rocker cover?Just wondering is all.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I dont have a cobra kit only the nizpro plenum which will be replaced in about 2 weeks witha new one
