Question

Decent Gains??


I installed the C&L Racer Package with the 93 octane tune from Brenspeed earlier this week. I love the new feel of the car and how much more aggressive it drives, but I was hoping for better 1/4 mile times. Just wondering if y'all think it's driver error or if I'm where I should be.

My best pass previously was 13.9, but that was when the temp was 40 degrees. Yesterday when I went to the track it was @ 70 F and I ran a 13.5. Last fall I ran a best of 14.1 at the same temp... should I be happy b/c I just feel like I want to go faster..... and faster

My car's an 07 automatic with just the CAI, tune and MAC axle backs... everything else is stock.

I think I might just feel slow b/c there was a supercharged '06 runnin 11.55 and I won't lie, I was jealous.

Welcome both newbies, alot can play into it, tires, driver etc. I have a few bolt ons and with my lack of dragging I was running low 13's. Use every redlight as practice! lol

Anythings possible, but read this. It will give you an idea of what your car is capable of with more seat time and some sticky tires. And it will give you more confidence in your car imo.

I think that is pretty good. Was that on stock tires and are your gears still stock? Gears, sticky tires, and a tci torque converter and 12's should be in your future.

Thanks everyone. I am on stock tires etc also and still getting the hang of where to powerbrake to etc, so with practice I should improve a little. Guess I shouldn't be too disappointed since I was easily faster than 1/2 of the cars there. (especially the guy with his '84 Escort runnin 19's)
