Not speaking from experience, but I was told by one of the guys at the track that was runnig the NT05r's hook better than the 555r's, but you'll get something ridiculous like 20% of the wear out of them compared to the 555r's.

Is weight being taken out and not mentioned? it just doesnt add up.
(highest trap I have ever seen for a 6 speed car stock is 114...he hit 119)
axle back...little gain...x-pipe...wow...and a tune. The car doesnt even have headers. The car really doesnt even have any real performance mods besides the tune. IT is far from full bolt on.
5-6 mph trap increase? that is 50-60hp all things staying equal.
someone educate me. (and I know all about the stock rev limiter...not buying that as the reason)
The car is trapping as fast as ls3 vettes while having no more power to the wheels (ls3 vettes ~390whp) and being 400lbs heavier...once again...educate me.
I know these cars get a lot form the tune while still being on the stock manifolds (such a good design) but this is just odd. I am skeptical to say the least.

More aggressive gearing + higher RPM limits? Net torque?
