13.6@104.5mph, Is there more in it?

G'day Guys,

Seems to be alot of response here lately to this kind of stuff so i thought i'll throw mine out there to see if i can get any feedback.

Okay so best time to date is 13.682@104.4mph with a 2.294 60ft. Ambient temp was 18.0C, Relative Hum' 69.0%, and track temp of 27.3C.

This was done in full street trim with 235/40/18's at 22psi, Hardtop on tailgate up. Launching was at around 1800rpm to find that meduim between bogging down and just lighting up the rears. Launching like this was giving me best 60ft times with abit of wheelspin off the line.

Ute is running T5 tansmission with Extreme cerami-tallic clutch and std 3.45:1 LSD. Would there be much to be had with a final drive ratio change? Something like 3.73:1 or even 3.91:1?

A set of Hoosier or MT street slicks is definately on the cards in either 15 or 16". How much of a difference do you think a set of these will make as apposed to the 18" street tyres i was running? Only thing that worries me about the slicks is the strain they'll put on the poor ol' T5.

Any feedback/suggestions is greatly appreciated. Any other info you guys want on the vehicle including engine info or suspension etc just fire away and i'll reply as soon as i can.

Cheers Jeff
