The car has Most BMR susspension mods, Moser drivetrain including 12bolt/3.73. Stock manifolds y-pipe, cutout, asorted intake mods and a 3600 stall.
Ran a best of 7.761@86.79mph 1/8 mile
12.217@109.13mph 1/4 mile
I improved .2 in the 1/8 and .3 in the 1/4
Oh, It's a 99 Trans Am A4. Im pretty happy about the times. Can't wait to see what it will run with Long Tube headers. But befor that ill be installing a BMR K-member and dynabat battery. So with the loss of weight im hoping for 7.6 maybe a 7.5 with Stock Manifolds!!

The stock manifolds are to cool. Leave them on. I'm running the sig times with them on dope and the stock y-pipe. They have plenty of capability.
What else does your car have or not have (I'm guessing is the case-lightweight) to run that fast?
The k-member is a 30lb? savings and the bat is 20lbs?, that's 50? That's a half a tenth in the quarter.
Excellent run, PM me if you don't want the World to know.

All my times were ran with a 28" tall E/T streets. No times have been recorded with 26" tall tires. I am guessing my 1/4 with 26" would be a .1 or .2 better then my current best.
Thanks for the good word! Ill leave the stock manifolds on for now. The K-member and Bat. are probably the only mods ill do for the rest of the year. I deploy to Afgan. in a couple of months and when I come back the money I make will go into a new paint job for the car.
You have good times your self. Good luck and Take care :cheers:
