Re: MAPerformance steps into the 9's @ 148mph
Congrats... Love the way it sounds on the "free rev" launches.
Is the whole drivetrain stock? As far as tranny/t-case/drive sahft and all axles?

Re: MAPerformance steps into the 9's @ 148mph
Car hops pretty good out of the whole, I'd tighten up that dampener in the rear.

Trans is an EVO3 unit with a swapped gears to work with a standard 5sp 1g AWD 4bolt. It also has a TRE Spool.
Stock Transfer Case, Stock Driveshaft, All stock Axle's.
Its still on stock valves, eagle rods, and an EBay Intercooler Core.
Swanny, the rear is on full stiff  It's looking like coilovers or something.

Yeah you might need some real suspension at this point.
I know when John snapped a 4 bolt axle back in 2004 it was from wheelhop in the rear. My car hopped once at the track last season, then it hopped one other time when it was too stiff. I am assuming you guys have played with the settings.
Honestly I would do a full suspension setup (maybe just a midgrade coil over like k-sports) before the axles, but thats just me.
Good luck at the shootout boys!

If we're making a suspension change we will be going with a ford 9"
You guys making it out to the shootout?

Re: MAPerformance steps into the 9's @ 148mph
My car will not be ready, and when it does run I will need a few track passes to work out the bugs etc, if I go back to the shootout it will be to run 8s.

Probably won't attend this year. We might be gone that weekend to hit Cedar Point, but we just don't have the time to get the cars done. I am thinking I *might* make a track visit in September/October if I am lucky.
No real point to rush it, and with all the customer vehicles here to do, just no energy at the end of the day to work on our stuff.

Re: MAPerformance steps into the 9's @ 148mph
If that even, solid rear axels are nice thats for sure. Next to break will be output shafts and rear ring/pinions, I cant wait.
