Pretty respectable.

Get a cutout or upgrade to Long Tubes and you'll be knocking on the door to 12s.

Yeah, I stalled it up a little at the line, It seems to launch hardest when I stall it up a little, but not all the way. I guess it gives it a chance to flash a little as well.

Grip, You think a cutout will help me any? Theres no plate in the Borla, so it's wide open. Maybe if I put it right after the cat.

If u have the borla, a cut-out wont do much IMO.

OH yeah, raceweight was 3925# with me and almost a full tank of gas. I think if I did some weight reduction, pulled the swaybar, and did some other little things there'd be room for improvement as well.

this is completely off subject but how do you know the weight of the car, do they weigh it at the strip? the only track ive ever been to was in the dc area and they just set you up next to someone and bracket you in. if thats how you say it.

At Englishtown, after you turn off after your run, on the way back to get your slips, there's a scale on the side of the road. Pull up on it and it tells you your weight. Doesn't have to do with class pairings though. At least the events I go to, I know the big boys have regulations and such.

That is a pretty good time for what you have done especially for the weight of your vehicle.

Mabee its time you drop a cam in it and get some tuning. That should really wake that puppy up even more..

Either way, those are some nice numbers!

Yeah I'm still trying to decide between an Xe224/230, or an NX kit when I save up enough money. Decisions decisions...
