Default 1/4 mile times Question

I was wondering what other 05-07 automaticMustangsare running in the 1/4 mile. I ask because
some people at the track say this is slow and I should have someone check out my tune.

I have a 2005 Mustang GT Automatic. MODS are:
JLT CAI
Underdrive Pulleys
MAC Axle Backs
FRPP 4.10 Gears.

My Best Time to Date is
60' - 1.992
1/8 - 8.550 @ 81.50 MPH
1/4 - 13.32 @ 104.35 MPH

they seem fine to me. considering the average person runs like 13.8 in an autostang...

what tune you using?

I'm sure people could run faster with your mods. But its not by any means SLOW...

Your buddies need to understand (crack kills). Those numbers are fine, If you work on it you will get a little lower. Just have fun and enjoy that beast you have.F them bro.

With C&L cai, b ama tune, underdrive pullies, corsa axle-backs, LCAs, and no front swaybar I ran a 13.007 @ 106. My 60' was 1.99. I was also on one of the fastest tracks in the country (Houston Raceway Park in Baytown, TX). I'm hoping for 12s with the off-road h-pipe and not showing up with 1/2 tank of gas. Gears are coming this summer hopefully.

2k05gt: Where do you live? Climate and elevation have a lot to do with your ETs. 13.3s sound good to me though.

Thurman, thanks man. At first, I thought it was a mistake but I backed it up with a 13.02, 13.04, and 13.09 with trap speed being around 106 (except with the brenspeed tune (13.09) which was @ 104mph).

Ok what are LCA's ?
Also how much can the sway bar removedget you in the 1320?? I know it helps in the 60'
I thought that the gears would help more than they have, unless the "LCA" that you have are really
doing the job.

How are you launching ? sorry for the questions but this is my first Automatic Muscle Car (I have a bad left knee and have severe pain when using a clutch) This was from a motor cycle accident several years ago and the knee gets worse every year. I crushed my knee when it got in between the ground and the engine casing at 45 MPH [:@]
