Drag time

KV007 · April 7th, 2010, 10:41 PM

what are you 96-98 mustang gt's running at the quarter mile? with a good set of street drag radials and bolt ons?

Ethan79 · April 7th, 2010, 10:50 PM

a good bolt on npi GT with good tires and good driver should go around 13-14 depending on exact mods...

KV007 · April 7th, 2010, 11:10 PM

npi? perfomance intake manifold? what if i ported and polished my heads?

sharkbait · April 8th, 2010, 12:28 AM

Youll be in the 14s.

Im boosted and running 13s all npi motor

Ethan79 · April 8th, 2010, 07:49 AM

npi (non performance improved )=1996-1998 mustang gt cams, heads, and intake then ford made PI ( performance improved) Heads, cams, and intake

NO_PI_NO_POWER · April 8th, 2010, 01:32 PM

Bolt on, npi's have been known to do mid to high 14's at 5800feet above sea level.

tfofkyle · April 8th, 2010, 01:55 PM

a typical bolton, coupe, 5 speed, full weight, full npi car will go about 14.2 at sea level on street tires if it has the driver mod.

KV007 · April 11th, 2010, 01:54 PM

i ran 16's with underdrive pulleys bolt ons and 4.10 gears. with big ass tires on the back. i was spinning sideways in 3rd gear tho

i didnt wanna do a burnout cause the tires are 400$ a piece

that means you REALLY have the wrong tires lol. The fastes i got mine was a 15.4 but i have like no mods...and my driver is in need of serious upgrades (yeah, i not the best)

tfofkyle · April 11th, 2010, 03:51 PM

you need at least a decent summer-only tire with 4.10s. i have to be surgical on my launch to not spin everything to the ground even with some extreme summer 255/45 meats (essentially nitto 555 knockoffs) and my 4.10s. and thank you for being honest thumbie, a lot of people arent willing to admit that. fwiw, the best drivers are also the worst on their trannies, and (like me) are probably going to have to replace or rebuild them a lot sooner than a less hard driver.

KV007 · April 11th, 2010, 08:14 PM

i got 275/40/17 in front and 315/35/17 in rear and still couldnt grip shit. i even did a little burnout. it almost got totally sideways every time i hit second gear. and first gear wouldnt even go anywhere....

Thumbie · April 11th, 2010, 11:30 PM

doing a little burnout helps a little no matter what tire you got. Those 10 second standstills however....save for drag radials. and dont drive through the water. and holy jesus 315 is a FAT tire

pba300900 · April 12th, 2010, 07:22 AM

I ran 14.8, 14.85, and 14.93 bone stock. Have not been back to the track since the bolt-ons.

JK7208 · April 12th, 2010, 09:59 AM

i ran 14.704@94.32 with a 2.18 60' with bfg drag radials

sounds like youre running something cheap. if its above 60* out, my 255's hook just fine, albeit burning half of 2nd gear off if i powershift, and a huge bark into 3rd.

KV007 · April 12th, 2010, 02:21 PM

well i think it may be my driveshaft. when i put it on a lift there is loads of play in it. i can move it up and down. and it makes shitty sounds when driving

zinc-vert02 · April 12th, 2010, 05:11 PM

i would fix that before you drag race, that could cause a huge acident, think if that fornt joint broke at 80mph and dropped down and jammed in the track it would either destroy the car and or flip you over lol. i would take car of that

tatertot99 · April 12th, 2010, 07:28 PM

I ran a 14.7 on some Nitto's, 4.10's, pulleys, BBK 78mm Throttle body and intake plenum, and the SCT Livewire.
