ZR intake worth 46 horsepower!!!
"ZR Intake is worth 46 horsepower".... or "raised top, I don't need no stinkin' raised top" (well, I do, but I guess I don't need it THAT much).
Thanks to dave's slicks (they were slicks when I took them, right?), I had some nice 60' times (best of 1.876).
Now for the theories: I was running 14.530 best before, now 13.467. That's 1.063 seconds faster. The old addage of 1 horsepower=0.1 seconds in the quarter=100 pounds says that I'm up a wopping 106 horsepower from before!! (sounds good, huh?)
So, the S-model is said to be worth 25-30hp,
70mm TB worth 10-15hp,
75mm MAF worth 10-15hp,
so that totals to a MAXIMUM of 60hp.
That leaves the ZR intake upping the power by 46 horses!
OK OK OK -- I'll let Ken tell everyone about the ride home
(who 'da man AGAIN? -- not bad for a stock top and bottom end with 110000 miles on it!)
