I am not one who believes you need to upgrade every part to be able to run higher HP TQ. That's just over kill. People on this forum are running stock driveshafts and axles with no issue. I am running street tires and not planning to go to track. Keep us informed. Thanks
It really depends on what conditions you're subjecting your car to. If it's going to be regularly on a prepped surface then you would definitely want to upgrade the common failure parts. If your goal is to just drive and enjoy the car, then by all means it's probably not necessary to upgrade the driveline components. As long as the car tracks straight and doesn't get too squirrely when it spins, imo you're good to go.
Yep, and I do plan on upgrading the required parts, I just want to see how this works out before I do. If I plan to take to track and hit hard from a stop, then of course I would replace them accordantly. Thanks
Awesome thanks for the quick reply! think ill go for the g2, its still going to be my daily driver
You are so close to the 9s. Once you get an updated tune to prevent the knock, you in thereWell, came real close to hitting my goal of a 9 second pass today. This was on the 105mm (11psi) pulley running Sunoco 260 GT 100 octane fuel and a race tune from PBD. DA was around 2200. I logged the run, and looking at it after, there was 3-4 degrees of positive knock above 7000rpms. My shift points are set to 7400. Timing on this tune is maxed for 22 degrees, but with the knock obviously it pulled a bunch out. I loaded my 93 octane tune for my next run and ran a 10.20@142. This run was far more typical with -3 to -4 degrees of knock logged. I'll send the logs for the 2 runs to PBD to get Rob to review and see what he suggests.
I have half a pail of Sunoco and a free entrance to a test and tune night left, and that will probably be it for this year. I'm leaning towards keeping the 11psi pulley on the car and using the 93 tune. Im my street logging with the car, I've never seen positive knock with it, so I feel comfortable at the moment running it. For the track, I can swap back to the 110mm pulley and run the race tune with the additional timing, the last time at the track I had no issues with knock with that setup.

I made 680hp on the 8.5psi pulley running 93. Id say it all depends what your goals are with the car and how conservative you want to be. With the 9.5 pulley i have seen 11-12psi if i spin the motor higher than the 7400 shift points set in the tune. I think that's about the max that is safe for 93. There are a few others running the 9.5 pulley and i dont think any of them have had tuners see any issue with their setups.
ESS advised against anything higher than 7.5 on pump gas but I think they were being conservative which isn't bad. I think we have some info now that supports you can safely run 9.5 on 93 like Kevin mentioned. I personally like having the option to go between 8.5 and 11 depending on the fuel. It's an appreciable difference.
Turn out was good. Good mix of newer Mopars and Fords there.
