I need to get back to the strip this coming spring!

I only went once when my car was 100% stock and best was 13.895 with rookie mistakes.

I remember my stock was around 13.7 . With CAI and tune + underdrive pulleys was around 13.2 to 13.5. I saw the biggest difference with the headers and offroad xpipe. My goal for that night was to get 12.9 or better and was accomplished. My friends there were a bit shocked and had their cameras rolling to see my reaction haha

Nice numbers!

And to think that so many on this board say shorties give no improvement over the stock manifolds... LOL

list of the mods is in the video description , I did good on the launch but not great, not bad either. I imagine i could do even better with better tires or even slicks. Extremely happy with the results

That was on stock tires & suspension?? If so, VERY impressive!

I showed up with half a tank of gas and had the Shaker1000 equipment in the back. Next time I'll minimize that, and that'll be an easy 100lbs. free'd up.

I also could have dropped my tire pressure alot, and ran the rpms alittle higher.

Would love to hit 12.999 with my current set up but dunno if it's that fast yet, lol

I go the 500 shaker and my car doesn't have any of the fancy " my color" thing. Also as far as i know, stock tires run better at the recommended PSI, so i wouldn't drop the tire pressure, I never dropped mine.

Mine should have been regular inflated, so ~35psi.

I had wheel hop issues and couldn't grab in first. My new LCAs fixed that. I kept my slips but they are packed up somewhere
