DA I imagine is around 500-1000. I think around 5pm is was like 1200.
This thing has a TON left in it if it can get off the line with the power down. Hell, I think even with just a cutout this thing will pick up 1 tenth. The stock catback has to be killing this thing. The tune is also very crude. Justin seems to think my wideband isn't reading accurately due to EFI lives interpretation of the analog voltage (he sees this a lot apparently). I wonder how much (if any) the 80e is giving up compared to a 60e?
The 1/8 on that last run was 8.82@79.84

There isn't THAT much left in the tune, lol. There might be 1 tenth in the tune if that. I've got the AFR and spark pretty good. It just needs fine tuning that I'm not yet experienced enough to do. That should come with time though.
The big time to be made will be with slicks. I'm thinking a 26" slick will do well. Now I'm crossing the traps around 5000 rpm in 3rd.

I'll try and calculate all that out, but at this time I'm not worried about it because I'm barely into 3rd gear at the end. All things equal, the 26" should be faster than the 28", but the 28" is probably a better long term investment if the speed gets too high and runs out of RPM in 3rd gear.

Depending on power levers/converter size/cam choice, you may pass the traps in a horrible RPM/speed or may spin of the line. I think spinning is the main reason most use a 28" slick with 4.10s.
You having an 80e, I guess since the 1st gear is longer, you may not have an issue with spinning and a 26" slick.
