Re: goin to the track

i hope you beefed up your brakes - better fluid, lines, rotors, and pads.

edit: by track, you mean 1/4 mile? then....just run whatever you feel like running. launch at 20k. haha

Re: goin to the track

For launching....it depends on your set up. Just play with it on the way there, find a good rpm where it will pull hard but won't spin. I say start around 2000-2500 and move up gradually and find the sweet spot

Re: goin to the track

man no offense but your K20 Track times are kinda depressing.. makes me not wanna save up for the swap. Well i guess have u got it tuned since install? Like i don't know alot about swaps, but i would guess with better tuning any motor could reach its full potential.
