I'm crossing the line *just* before I need to shift into 5th. So until I get the 4.57 gearset, I only have to shift into 4th, which obviously saves me the trouble of one more shift.
Changing gears may be an expensive mistake for you if you are only concerned with quartermile times.

The weather was nice and dry and the track was well prepped, so I just revved it up to 6K rpms and dropped the clutch for my launch. I used the throttle to sort of "feel" whether I needed to give it more or less gas to maintain traction without bogging. Of the 4 passes I made yesterday, 3 of them were in the 2.1xx range.
Oh, and my tires were right around 23psi in the rear and 32 in the front.

Thanks for the info. Do you still have the clutch delay valve in place? I have an AP2 as well and the CDV drives me nuts, especially on the 1-2 shift at redline.
