What gains with PT54, 9/11 3200, THDP, & 57's?

I was wondering what kind of gains I might see with the above parts.

My current mods are SMC Alky, hotwired 340, bluetops, MAF Translator +, hooker exhaust, test pipe.

Thanks,
Ross

With slicks. race gas, and all those mods tuned in correctly, easy mid-11's. You must 60 ft these cars to go real fast.

I went from 13.6 @106 not locking the converter on a somewhat stock setup to 12.0 @ 115 on alky with a 2.0 60'. I also have the CAS V4 intercooler. You may want to look at doing something about the intercooler.

A frontmount will follow these mods. Just trying to see where I might be at soon.

I'm also planning on installing new Comp 980s at the same time.

Any other opinions?

This was also with somewhat low boost, about 23 lbs. I think with racegas and about 28 lbs, I should be able to get into the 120s and slicks should put me close to the 10s.

Ross,

With the heat & humidity down here I'd plan on a cooling system upgrade (HE 3 row, spal fans, etc...) when trying to run a front mount.

I've been very happy with my stretch i/c & have gone solid 11.4's@119.5 with it, a te-61 & 3200 rpm 9/11" converter so far on a mild "fun" tune & xylene blend.

With a good tune, big boost ( 25psi or so ) and good traction ( i.e. 1.62 or so ) I would say 11.40 - 11.50. This is if you are running stock unported heads and you upgrade the IC.

Doug,

My temps rarely go over 180°. I purchased a radiator a couple years ago from someone out of state. I can't remember who it was, but I got the name of the person off this message board. So far it has kicked butt. Even in our July & August heat.
How much will the FM intercooler affect my temps?
Also, what are spal fans?

With a very good cooling system you can expect 10 - 15° higher temps on average with a front mount.

My car has gone 7.01 at 101 mph with quick time pros in a 1/8 mile with 1.59 60 ft.26# of boost with it spinning some when leaving.
