new times after headers and pipes

Went to piedmont dragway today new na time of 8.875 @79.99 with1.98 60 ft. this is after longtubes 3" pipes, plugs al 104, wires, 58mmtb, pcmforless, and removed front sway bar. I didnt spray on this run but played with the fire later. I just hit it in second a couple of times, and out of the hole once. I dont have a 685 yet so no window switch. best of 8.652 @84.85 with 2.031 60ft. best 60ft of 1.942 on 235 /50 goodyear tries no slicks. i cant wait to go to rockingham for the quarter mile.

I see what you are saying. my car is tired . I hauled it to the track incase it blew or the trans gave out. I didnt even test the nos at home. the fourth time i ran ,coming up the return road it was smoking. the last time i ran it, i hit the nos out of the hole right up to the shift or lack there of. in the near future rebuild engine and trans? converter too

Damn, I failed to notice the 209k. My tranny gave out about 500 miles ago (128K) but it was ****ty since i got the car at 107K. I got one from a 97 TA with 60K and it feels 10x better.
