Be sure you have a transmission cooler put in as well. I've had my Circle D for 3 years now. I daily the car and run it at the strip. No problems with the transmission, cooler keeps it under 185* F during stop & go driving. Chris Seahorn @ Circle D will tell you the same thing.

Your stock axles will hold up at 1.6 60' launches. Once you get to the 1.5's they are on borrowed time. An Eaton True-Trac and a 3.91 gear would be good "next mods" for you.

You should get low 1.7's for sure at full weight on a properly prepped surface in good air.
Take the front/rear seats out, all the floormats, and anything else you can to reduce weight, and you should see mid/high 1.6's.

Don't waste money on 20" drag radials, get 17" or 18" MT ET Street R and you'll hook great.
