Long Tubes picked me up 8 tenths and 8 mph. I also have 2.73s.

8 tenths and 8 mph from just LT's? What else do you have done to the car? Anyways, getting back to the response...headers will cut more off your ET, but going from 2.73's, gears will arguably have a bigger difference in feel.

Moroso CAI and 160º thermostat. I ran a best of 14.3@96 last year, this year ran a best of 13.5. I guess you could be fair and say that I gained 6 tenths because I ran 13.7s most of the day. I trapped at 102 most of the day as well. But I did have a best trap of 104. So even if you say 6 tenths and 6 mph it still picked up a LOT.
