which usually puts around .8 to a full second off of sea level times

anyway, what is the easiest and cheapest way to knock off the time i need to break into the 13's

any good bang for the buck mods i have yet to cover?

i want to try to hit 13.99 before the 100 shot, so i guess another question is what is the average et drop one can expect with a 100 shot of spray?

current mods are:

4.10's
Hoosier DR's
Short Throw Shifter
Weld-in flowmaster mufflers
UD pulleys
no front swaybar
look at my mods, im running mid 13s right now.

lol easiest and cheapest? Drop the belt, don't really recommend it, but, at 5800 feet above sea level, I dropped four tenths. But you should do it the right way.

Took the words right out of my mouth lol. Either that or go to another track . Seriously though, good luck on your little quest. And I agree, intake, exhaust, drag radials, and a tune and you should be set.

will do as soon as i hit 14.000 or 13's...

which will mean i might get it into the 12's on the spray...which i think is pretty good at my elevation...


so the plan is...

JLT CAI
Aluminum D/S
tb/plenum
tune

we'll see how it goes from there

Full exhaust and Dyno tune I'd say that will get you into the 13's. Whats your 60ft time and top speed in the 1/4??

Oh, guess I missed the Hoosier part in your mod list. Well then, everything else I listed should put you into 13s .

1.92 60 ft...yes i know it sucks...but my buddies on et drags with s/c'ers run 1.7's...its just not a good track at all,



and i trap at 94.52

i can probably get it into the 14.2xx's as when i ran the 14.32 it was my first trip out on the hoosiers, still a lot of room for improvement

Thats an awesome track. Looks like its out in the middle of nowhere type grass roots strip. But I can see what you mean by fighting the track as well as the altitude. Good luck with your 13 sec mission. I'm betting you'll get there.

15 psi...launching around 5000k rps...they are actually hooking pretty good at that rpm...

but surprisingly i'm outlaunching all the stock-lightly modded evo's and sti's...weird place to place, the numbers are all high...sounds kind of bad from the outside, but when you race here you understand lol
