uh?...235hp can get you 12.9's

225 flywheel horsepower can get you 12.8 (@ or near sea level) with the proper drive train, suspension, and tire, that was with an automatic also.

duh!...a few others have hit it also

I know that you know it grabbem. I'm sure thatothershave hit it, I just haven't heard of it or most likely just not paid attention

. It just goes to show what a nicely set up drivetrain and suspension can do for you.It's too bad that it took me like $1500 worth of bolt ons later to realize that.The sad part is, is that I can actually feel the difference with the suspension partsand you can't even notice the gains with the little bolt ons (i.e. throttle body, CAI etc) on a stock motor. A lot of people just don't realize what suspension and drivetrain mods can do for you,they're all out to get more power.
