Also you're gonna have to get a better method than the cellphone . Why don't you get one of the old G-tech like I did? they sell on Ebay for $40. They'll measure 1/4 mile time too. And while their precision might not be like the equipment at the drag strip, or even the latest G-tech model, you'll have to admit is better than the cellphone method

True, but its all I have right now. Maybe I can borrow an actual stop watch or something from someone. How it works is, they say GO and I hammer it and then they watch for 60 to happen while I am paying attention to driving and shifting.

No, they are modified by yours truely, and they require tuning and attention every bit as much as the fuel jets. I've told you that many times.

You sure do act like a noob for such an old man!

Carl, please ban Dennis

I know I know Dennis, that's why I'm asking Carl what he sent it with, so I can tell you, so you can impart your divine knowledge, so I can get a fast ******* car!

Yeah I work

I only have the smaller jets I was using for fuel as I went up from 147 to 155s and back down to 150s, and 165s up to 170s. Suspect those would be too big for air jets?
