To be totally honest, if you are bone stock with like 2.73's or something your not TOO far off from where you should be. I have seen stock sn-95 auto verts run 16's.

I have a 95 very auto, which is the same thing as the 94 (AODE tranny, same engine, body, weight, gears, etc.) As others have stated, if you are basically stock, then that's not too far off from what you can expect. I would say mid to low 16's. But you can easily reach 17's with a tired engine on bad tires with little to no launch, etc.

I had to do quite a bit to compensate for the problems with mine. Changed to 3.73 gears, added a shift kit, dropped a lot of unnecessary weight, got better suspension, added water / meth injection, added supercharger, added ratchet shifter so it's easier to control my shift points, etc.

his car could hit 15's easily with the right conditions and driver mod

^^ I doubt that... right conditions and where hes located does have an affect on times though. And for the driver mod... its an automatic so its not like he can really mess up anywhere except for launching.
