finally ran my 98 at the track (New england dragway, Epping NH, sea level for those who really care) with the 4.10s, locker, sct tuner (i know nothing about the program) upgraded fuel pump and 6" alum driveshaft. times were pretty consistent at 3 passes of 15.2 and one pass at 15.1, but naturally i had expected a bit better in the time department.
for each pass i was running with OD off and Trac control off also. the shift pressures are set at +25% (maxed out) ive got the 1-2 and the 2-3 shift both happening right around 6300rpm and right as im passing thru the traps im just shy of where i would need to shift into 4th gear.
rear tires are 235/55/17 firehawks in the rear that are VERY nice about keeping traction. last year i was running a set of 245/45/17 goodyear eagle F1's that couldnt stick to the pavement if my life depended on it.
so next on the list is most def the exhaust and the 3rd cat is getting chopped out in favor of an X pipe.
my real question is, should i be seeing faster times with what ive already got? am i right about where i should be? i would def love to get dialed into the lower 14's for now, but the big picture plan for the car is a turbo later on down the line. (i know everyone says they are impossible to fit but i have a few ideas where and how to make it all happen)
