>>>Although, getting back to the Dak you mentioned; did they say anything
about traction problems in the 1/4? That's slower than I'd expect from
a Vortech'ed Dak. He should be running about 13.3; at least 13.5...
   The 17's actually help in the gearing department (if its got 3.55's,
the 275/40's would raise that to 3.83's). Maybe its got the 3.23's?
<<<

It really didn't say anything all that in-detail. It did give the
references though. I remeber somone inquiring about an intercooler. For
the intercooler they listed RPS Automotive in Chatsworth CA.
(818)993-9174. I woud assume that there is a traction problem given teh
ET's. You're right about the 13.3's.. this thing shouldbe tearin' a lot
more arse than it does. The blower is 8lb's of boost. I'm sure with a cam
and a TB it would be a serious monster. =) He may be runnin' 3.55's which
could also be hurtin' his ET's a little... hhmmmm... All I know is, I'll
take two of em' =)
I'll type up the article and e-mail ya' privately if ya' want, or post to
the list if anyone else is interested =)
