Default WTF is modded on my stang?

I have an 01 gt autowhich looked relativly stock. After a few months i started the basics cold air, exhaust andsprings. Ifound out later that it had been tuned by some sort of tuner or programer. My last run on the track was a 13.7 1/4 with a 2.0 60 foot. Does this 1/4 mile time sound right for an auto with these mods? Cause i have read others with similar mods runing 14's I'm wondering if there is somthing else done i dont know about please help! any input will help. i added a time slipout of my stack of them i run the track all the time

You can get two mustangs that are the exact same and with the same mods and race them and there times will be diff. Just because you have a mustang that runs faster than most with the same mods, does notmean you have othermods done to yours. Your car probably just responds better to the mods than other 01 gt's do, or you may get better traction than others have. Aguy at our local 1/8 mile trackhad a 93 lx 5.0 coupe with a 4:10 gear, Intake, cai, and pulleys and was running 8.0's in the 1/8, and thats freakin fast for are car with just those mods, most cars like his with those same mods will run 8:80's-9's. That just goes to show that all cars are diff.

On a newer car, its more about the driver than it is the car. There are lots of different things that can throw it off though... temps, humity, track prep, etc etc.

I would say your doing pretty well to get a 2.0 60' out of your car.

Maybe you're just a good driver?

From what I have seen dyno wise the 4.6Ls don't have alot of variance from the factory. You might see 5 WHP here and there, but your not going to see a car coming out with say 15+ more HP than another.

can't compare what you run and most others that you read about on the internet. DA plays a huge part and it varies from location to location.

i think it was Tim at mph or maybe another mechanic that said some of the 99+ new edges were having issues with thestock cam. he said that some would be about 15-20 off from stock. when i say off i mean less than stock. not that it means anything but just thought id throw it in.
