Really......got a vid or anything? I know a couple guys with AWD talons and Evos that are putting down WAY more boost and I'm pretty sure their not trapping 153 and that on an AWD car that hooks outta the hole, I actually know of one thats putting down 700whp and running 10.40s at 124 I think

NAh he totaled the car I think. It was a few yr ago. Evos are all wheel drive not front wheel drive. His was a front wheel drive. I'll have to see if he has any slips.

Sorry man, but I honsestly don't believe that his car trapped 153, heres a clip to see what it takes to get that trap speed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFB1S...eature=related and the car in the clip is well over 28psi

Sorry for the thread jack OP, but me and my dad debated on the limited slip for the front and decided against it, too many horror stories about the front end coming right out from under the truck on snow covered roads, and living in Wisconsin having 4wd is almost a must, and if all it does is point you into the ditch we don't want that LOL

He said the car was a bitch to get off the line but it moved he ran slick on it all yr long. Some kind of mickey they where. He went to auto school and rebuilt everything in the car ripped out all the other car put on a turbo and put a full cage in it.

FWD cars usually trap higher for the ET they run compared to AWD or RWD cars. However, the numbers thrown around in this thread don't seen very credible.

Regarding the locker in the front. I plan on running one in my Ram (already have one in the rear) and simply installing a manual disconnect for the short shaft so that I can still run 3wd on the street if I have to.

I dont see what the big deal with one in the rear yea it will push you around more the a lsd. But other than that I don't get it. What's wrong with running one in the front as well.

man this guy can run up against some of the super gas cars that i had a hand in building. I mean a super gas car can run way faster than they have to but standard eta is 9.9 in a 1/4 and most are running 140 to 150 mph give or take a few
