Unhappy How Fast?

I have a 2004 Stang GT with a custom CAI, Magnaflow cat-back, and 3.55 Gears, but I havent been able to get to the track since I got it, how fast do y'all think I'd get in the quarter, I know stock it's about 14.2@98 mph so I was hoping this would get me at least a 13.9...am I dreaming or is it possible lol

Need to get to the track lol

No i dont think you can hit that low. A buddy of mine with a 5 spd and same mods as you except 3.73s only hit 14.4. Something might be wrong with his car but i belive you should be in the low 14s

Under ideal conditions (da, weather, track prep, etc) a 13.9 is possible.

If u drive it good enough then 13.7 isn't out of the question. If it was a stick I'd say 13.50s

ive never actually seen a stock gt go 13's, but they are low 14 second cars all day. You can get into the 13's with a tune and better tires
