Putting ice on the intake helps.. It has help me. Especially in the summer! 13s with a stang is easy, just gotta have correct combo! Get rid of those heavy rims and get rid of any spare tire & tools and junk that doesnt need to be there. Just remember read, read and read some more to see what cpmbos are working for other people. good luck!

Rims make a big difference ifou ask me, because they made a huge differnce last time i went to milan. On my normal rims my best run was 14.2 with just exhaust and a gear in my 86 stang. My buddy let me borrow his weld draglites, they had just normal street tires on them but the rim is lighter and the front runners were a lot lighter. i also took off the sway bar and my best with those is a 13.799. So just rims and dropping the swaybar made almost 4 tenths difference in my 1/4 mile time. i would stay away from big rims and heavy rims if you plan on racing a lot.

any fox should be running 14s IMO... maybe if its an auto it might not but really if you cant run 14s theres somrthing wrong.. unless you have bad weather or something i dont know.
