Default RE: Is this for real?

I recall when i first go the car a year or so ago getting like low 6's... and when i got my exhaust gears and tune, BEFORE THE COLD AIR, running a 6 flat w/ me and my friend michael (me 200lbs, him 300lbs, and my bowling equip in the back. - so like 5.5ish w/ the extra weight). I shift hard but i have to be careful to avoid wheel spin.

I dont actually think 0-60 matters very much.... its still way to high though.. my stupid friends dont realize that you car can be fast to 60.. but slow after that. But it is still too high.

Let it be. Go to the track, and get some real numbers that count.

have you been playing with timing? I turned my timing up with the preditor about 2 points from 2-4k and 3 points from 4-6k and set my rev limit at 6200. i never noticed it loosing power. pulls hard all the way to the limiter.

are you leaving the line with high rpm and slipping the clutch or are you letting it fall on its face?

I'm afraid to touch any of the features in the tuner. The only thing i've changed was the gears. I think my slow down was just around the time i got my C&L cold air + MAF... I bought them used. Could this be the problem? The MAF mainly?

I normally take off really good. I normally just rev to 2k and let off clutch hard enough so no tire spin. And yourself?

here's a good calculator, once you do get to the track
http://www.wallaceracing.com/0-60_equation.php

I entered the info off of one of my time slips, I run 0-60 mph in 3.46 seconds
