A full second better!!

I went to the track this tuesday and the conditions were pretty good. It was 68 degrees out with a little head wind. I recently put a stock '94/'95 style blower on with an early style pulley on it running 13 psi, exhaust, and a custom cold air intake in the fender. thats all the mods i have. Before these mods i ran a 15.2 @93 with an early style blower with 5% pulley, and intake, and i cut the mufflers off of the stock exhaust. well, on tuesday i ran a 14.27 at 97 mph :eek:

I definitely couldnt believe it but i have the time slip to prove it.
The incrementals are as follows:

60ft: 2.119
330: 5.96
1/8: 9.18
mph: 76.14
1000:11.952
1/4: 14.276
mph: 96.99

This is a five speed car by the way. I dropped the clutch at 1500rpm and it bogged a little but not much. The tires i was using are 225 bridgestone potenza re950's. I only got one run due to a nitrous fire. i am going to try again next tuesday. :D

That is very nice! Looks like good driving as well as some good power. There might be even a little more out of it with some practice. :D

What gears do you have in it? Stock or 3.27's?

Hey, thanks dave. By the way I received your money order on thursday but i just got back in town yesterday. I will see if i can overnight the stuff to you.

Yes i have stock gears. it ended up at about 5300rpm at the trap and i was shifting at 5500 :D

thanks for the replys

Nice, a 4MPH increase is worth about 40HP. Sounds like your driving/traction improved a lot to drop a full second with just 40HP.

Great job!

Thanks man, I was surprised about the times i got. this is only the fourth time i've been down the dragstrip in this car. i've only ran it once with the mods that are currently on the car.
