i dont know what 0-60, and i dont think alot of ppl here will, most all of us drag race... so we can tell you your 60ft time, or 1/4 mile time...roughly ofcourse... there are alota factors

n e way, it should pull atleast a 2.0 60 ft time(quicker if you can launch well), and do a high/mid 13

who knows 0 to 60?? LOL...All I care about is the 1/4 mile, and my best guess for your car is mid to low 14's if you can drive well.

dude, its a stick, it has 3.73s... and heads/intake... if he doesnt run a 13 something is very wrong


i run a low 14 with just a tire, stock gears, stock motor

and a low 13 on just a 100 shot...

think about it...

I missed the gears part, but I still only give him low 14's. I remeber Adder with his Cobra and his self anounced good driver mod he was getting high 13's to low 14's.

Look around the forums, so people have a hard time getting into the mid 14's with those mods.

Plus he doesnt have a very sticky tire, i dont think he will manage a 2.0 60' on those, but i would love to be suprised.

dude, all i have to say is... give me that car... itll run a 13, lol... and im in now way some great driver

dont ask me why adders car was slow, lol... beats me

my theory is... if i can run a 14.2 on stock motor/stock gears...sticky tire(m/t dr), then why cant he do better with heads, intake, GEARS?

btw... stock stock i ran 14.7s... so i mean... yea... he should be able to do a 13.xx

should be an easy 13 sec car with all the supporting mods to go with the heads. My 95 at full weight with gt40x's (aluminum version, only flow slight better) and bolt ons will go low 13's at around 104.

hmmmmmm 14's??? 13's??????? I guess you can speculate what you want about how fast the car will run but two necessary items to pull a 13 would be for sure sticky tires and driver ability.......the only way to settle it's true performance is go to the track and run it!!! I don't like to guess what I think something will run..I just run it and there you have it.....It's kind of like asking myself hmmmm how much HP does my motor make???? I could make a rough guess but in November when the air is just right I'm taking it to have it dyno tested to settle all speculation!!! Talk is cheap put the words to action and find out when your local dragstrip runs and go do it...it's a blast!!!! I still remember the first time I rolled down the 1320!!! had a 2.3 60ft and a 15.8 @89 mph...dang an acura even gave me a run for my money that day!!!!!!![:@]
