To get back on track: how much SHOULD a TR pick up in the last 1/8?

 

[Nocooler]

A good running stock TR should gain 20 mph in the last 1/8th.

uummm...an average running TR should pick up 20, a decent running one will pick up 25 mph

 

[S10xGN]

So seeing a 20 mph gain while the ECM is pulling 28° timing due to knock (on a 19° chip) is prolly pretty good?

Did the valve springs cure it?

I would like to know because a fellow GN owners car onlu picks up like 15-16 mph from 1/8-1/4 mile.

He has an ATR front mount,THDP, postons headers and 206/206 cam, TE-44 at 25psi and cam 2 fuel, 2800 converter, and GN1'S. I made a pass in his car and was

After reading this thread I think maybe it's his chip.
