bl1nkage, whatwere the temps when you ran with the intake and tune? Temps, humidity, and track conditions can make a big difference in times.

Click on my Signature Pic..
2005 GT Auto CAI, Tune and Gears.
My problem is that I weight 225 LBS this slows me down a bit.
My best mod would be to loose 40 lbs

I know with tbw 4.10 I should be around 13.1 - 13.2 but 13.3 is my best so far..

I ran Stock 13.9
CAI Tune 13.6
Cears 13.3
yeah, I am working on that same mod..about 40 lbs to go...and my times should be better...albeit with my mods I was able to put down a best of 13.08....my avg is 13.15

Probably around 85 degrees with maybe 80% humidity...

Nope you're wrong...

It's the track, OSW doesn't prep. Take a drive to Bradenton just once and try there track and you will be in DISBELIEF. It is over a million times better than OSW and you don't have to worry about crashing into sidewalls like myself.

Moral: ****ty track = bad 1/4 time and bad 60 fts. along with crashes!

I just got back from the track. I did a best of 13.83 at 97.x mph. I'm too lazy to get the slip right now. My best run was my first one, i hooked well but didn't launch very high. My 2nd and 3rd runs came after dark and the track was getting cold and a bit slick so my 60' times rose by a tenth or so and my 1/4 times were about 2 tenths over my best. Without any more mods, i think there's another tenth or so in it...13.7s or 13'6s are realistic.

Well, your best time is .30 better than my best time and in worse conditions as well. High humidity probably hurt you.
Since you're trapping a lot higher than me, what's your 60' time?
My best 60' was 2.06 (not sure of the thousanth number but i think 6).
I think you'll do even better in better weather and with a good launch.
