The 40 sidewall will give it a little more "bite" than a 35 on those because of the uber soft sidewalls. They might be a bit small for a ~400whp set-up, but you should be able to pull 1.7's w/o much issue.......it will be enough to give the stock axles a serious jolt if you aren't careful though.

I raced regularly at Mason Dixon in 2004 and 2005 when they had a Import Quick-8. Competition was slim (probably why it ended). Usually if you ran better than 14.0 seconds you were in. Excellent learning experience.
Have not done test & tune for years. Summit ET racing at Cecil County yes.

the power and torque is reasonable for the dragstrip, it's more that I've been experiencing problems with my setup (resulting in replacing the turbos and fuel system) and want to avoid anything else going wrong before I have a chance to enjoy the car and attend meets.

I do miss the feeling of over 400 hp/tq though. I might do it again with a HKS S/C.
