how is it that I beat camaros, they are running high 13-low14's, I think if I hook up good and practice ill be high 13's, also I have more mods than my sig will let me fit.I picture it like this, gears take out .4, the pulleys .1, no A/C .1, short shifter .1 if not more, full exhaust .3 mabye if not less, bigger tires=better traction, couple tents...so adding it up from around 14.7 stock estimate,14.0 or less, but let me know if this doesnt sound right?

Dude, I think it's a pretty accurate estimate. I've seen some almost stock 5.0s almost run mid 14s with really good drivers behind the wheel. You have full exhaust, pulleys, cai? not sure, and gears. I'd say if your car was running really good, had a full tune up, good clutch and everything that you'd be in the low 14s, if not high 13s maybee a little more work to get there.

here's exactly what I have,tho i might leave out some parts,but heres the basic of what I have...shorty headers,H-pipe,flowmasters 50's w/dumps 3.55 gears,subframes connectors,short shifter, 245 tires in back, no ac, pulleys, no spare tire, 3 core radiator,the car is lower,so springs and shocks, front and rear sway bars,the clutch is some kind of racing clutch, it grabs really good, It has a full tune up, wires,cap, timing,k&n filter, new stock injector,new fuel rail, tire have lots of tred left, and im a pretty decent driver, i can take off at 2500rpm and not spin the tires.my car is tuned. also its a LX which is lighter than the GT, would I gain from taking out the back seat? im thinking if It would give me a tenth or so, it might be worth it.

any weight you can remove will help. rule of thumb is 0.1 sec reduction in ET for every 100 lbs. weight removed.
If you really want to know what it will run, take it to the nearest strip and let it rip. I still say you would be in the 14's, not 13's with your mods.

Ok heres the thing with the track, its pretty far away for oneand its 30$, and another thing about the nearest track is that its so freakin crowed that you get 2 runs every 5 hours, the track is so packed,you spend more time waiting than driving, but thats just what ive been told from my friends that go there, they say its not worth going to the track, thats why they street race.

well if you had some ignition parts(msd), loosen up the sway bar and a good set of drag radials you might clip a 13.99 a good set of 4 banger front spring would help

Do MSD ingition part give any Hp, I thought i just made a better spark, and stronger sparks.

roundman

better, stronger sparks = better combustion = more HP

maybe a new 50hp wing will get you in the 13's
