Took my Mustang GT to the drag strip after after adding kooks long tube headers and AWE switch path exhaust. Let’s just say we saw some good trap speed gains and better quarter mile times! Worth it in my opinion!

So what time did it run? would love to see a time slip vs. watching a video to try and see the answers : )

Your induction tubes gives you rough breathing and has restrictions and would recommend smooth tube Steeda induction like mine without anything in it below:

Seeing these S650's trap 121+, I think the dual intakes mitigates that issue, His bigger issue is those 315 gears with a 28.5" tall tire.

A shorter and lighter DR/wheel and that would likely have netted a 11.6xx.

@Stang24 ..... great video. Can't tell from your video but did you put some big a$$ fans on your engine and tranny between runs to cool them down? Back in the day that's what we used to do. If that we didn't do that and there are multiple runs we found the car's times got worse and worse due to heat soak. You will see that on dyno runs too, if the drive train isn't cooled between pulls you start getting worse HP and torque values.

Thanks I appreciate it. I didn’t put any fans but I did let it cool down between runs. I think I only did 2 back to back runs but other I let cool for 15-30 min as I was watching others run

100% I think we can definitely get a better time with a smaller tire and get rid of that super wide wheel and tire in the front. 3.15s don’t help either but I do eventually want to boost it I heard 3.15s are better for boost.

Yep, 3.15's FTW.

And if these Gen4's get tunable, 3.15's with with a N/A setup shifting @8K are gunna fly.

$2K + for LTH. Juice isn't worth the squeez on these cars.

From experience on my 2018 GT as well.

Save up for boost.

No LT's would not be the 1st choice for going fast down the strip...

Pulling a couple hundred pounds off the car is cheap and easy and will net real gains.

I ran 11.61 @124 on a 275/40-17 Hoosier DR2 on a light weight 17x9 wheel, and 160lbs removed from the car.

Still rolling the stock fronts.

Impressive with only a 1.93 60 foot time- that is some good MPH on a stock car ....given just a little weight reduction. and tires......

Those Hoosiers are only 25.5in so they kill the 60ft, but they take advantage the Yote's high rpm powerband with the 3.15 gear.

I cut 1.81xx 60's on a taller Nitto DR.

I can still pull another 120lbs off the car, 180 dumping the exhaust.
