    A full exhaust/HV3 L36 should still make upwards of 190~ WHP with a solid tune.

    Your Imp just has long ass gears and is heavy. Would do wonders with a diet and some 3.69's.

    Probably mid 14's.

    only like 55 pound more then the gp's, but ya my gear ratio (3:05 vs 3:29..) kills me,least its better then gtp gear ratio...it does let me stay in second gear atthe end of the track unlike 3:29 which makes you shift into 3rd just before the end of the track(1/4 mile).
    questions for the almight blueguy
    wouldnt 3:69's kill my highway mpg's?(im 95% highway doing 65 mph)
    and do you think its worth getting retuned from overkill with the headers?

    I love thread jacking, this thread seems dead anyways lol

    It's not so much "name calling"...I just get bored.

    And yeah, these cars tend to lean out quite a bit with headers...and being N/A...lean is mean. Get Will to lean your car out and crank some timing at it. I think Reptile had mine at 13:1 with 30*~ or something. I can't remember.

    Also...I really doubt 3.69's would hurt mileage that much at 65...I saw better mileage with 3.29's vs. 2.93's with my tune really dialed in well. 14:1~ AFR at cruise...even higher timing #'s. Will should know.

    I thought you weren't modding anymore anyways?

    I saw a forsale thread 3:69's for $100...lol,
    I wanna be done modding some days, but other days i get bored and then I think of mods lmao... next month once i am done fighting my "unsafe turn" ticket I will be looking for a team driving position(team drive with my brother) in commercial driving, when I was team driving I was making over double the money I am making now, which leaves alot of money to be thrown around.
    I am all over the place when it comes to my car and modding, when your on the road 12 hours a day all you can do is think lol, if i cant sell my topswap soon I may just keep it for myself
    It'd be nice to be able to keep up with my bro's 05 mustang G.T
