[QUOTE="brkntrxn, post: 10552619, member: 12396"] When I blew the last engine, sold the blower and built the NA setup, I literally dropped 200hp (554rwhp to 355rwhp), but my lap times DROPPED because I was faster and more controlled through the corners and apex to trackout. I also got MORE seat time since I was not working on the car and that equated to making me a better driver. To answer your TT thought... my 99 as it sat when I sold it spec'ed out somewhere in TTA if I recall correctly. And I knew then I was outgunned because even though I was faster than I had ever been before, I could not hang with bone stock C5Z06s (TTA=SpecC5Z06) on equal rubber. In retrospect, it would have been nice to de-mod the car a bit and be at the top of TTB. Which I could have easily done if I were building it for a TTB car on Hoosier As from the start. But since I was not, I screwed myself. If you are going to rebuild it for TT, then figure out a class that you want to run in and build it to be a 18-19pt car on Hoosier As in that class. I keep getting the itch to build a TTB Mustang, but the new exhaust on the 01 Cobra vert should be enough to satisfy my "Mustang urges" at the moment. -Kevin [/QUOTE]
