Skinnies/Driveshaft

Does anyone have any before/after times for just swapping out for front runners, changing to a 1 piece driveshaft or both? Claims of course can be very outlandish so looking for hard facts. I have had both at one point but currently back to stock front wheels/ds. My car ran significantly better than I thought it would recently and now I have an inkling to make it run 10's NA. Ran [email protected] with L&M intake cams, GT350 intake/tb, full exhaust, e85. Car was 3920 race weight. 1.64 sixty with a radial and stock axles.

You can get a solid .1 and 1 mph bolt-ons N/A with the correct skinnies up front.

From the very limited info I got regarding the driveshaft on the Coyote Mustang MAYBE .05 gain. Certainly not the .2-.25 some claim.Very few people have done a solid comparaison. For the price I personally stay away from a aluminum and even more from a carbon fiber shaft unless the stock one is not strong enough anymore like in some boosted application.

Went from 20" velgens up front to 17x4.5 F14s, lowered ET by 0.18 and gained close to 2mph.

I went from 19 PP1 wheels to 18x5 skinnies/bias ply up front . I did also switch the rear wheel /tire from 19 PP/MT SS drag radials(305/35) to 17 inch race stars/ET R's (305/45).

I gained 2-3 mph and 0.3 ET.

Man i really need skinnies up front!!!!.
