You are ****! I need somebody to verify that I'm actually going to run a 14.xx, and didn't just camp at the timing booth and mug someone for the slip.

Ban,

our cars are very similar. What have you done to your car to hope for a 14.xx 1/4?

I have some Goodyears he can borrow

But I think Nate doesn't want to run it until the tranny is sorted out.

Shorter tires and a complete spare drivetrain sitting at the shop. My engine mods consist of Borla headers, a really good catback built by Jeremy, and a Ganzflow intake. I may even take apart the airbox and run open throttle body.

I've run 15.27 with an almost good launch, and I think thetires I have now (215/40R16s) will shorten effective gearing enough to help, but won't bring me to the rev limiter at the trap. I trap at 87ish right now and probably only need to get to 90 to get 14s. Also I think I just have a "good" factory motor. Car has always felt faster than it should.
