That equates to about a 13.50 1/4 pass, a lot of factors go into your times. What kind of 60' times are you getting, what is the altitude at the track, what is the outside temp and humidity etc...

wha 1/4 time did you run with an 1/8 like that?? my best 1/8 is 8.45, but it was with gears and a dyno tune also, and resulted in a 12.97

That run got me a 1/4 et of 13.208. Since then I have run a 1/8 of 8.33 which gave me a 1/4 time of 12.90


EDIT: The 12.90 run was done with the mods in my sig. Still running on stock tires and gears.

Work on your 60' and you will be turning some very respectable times, but everything seems normal.

I have a simulation model for the 05/06 mustang that says the following is possible with those mods...

60 ft 2.02
1/8 8.58
1/4 13.29


Would agree with the other posters. You are in the ballpark, just work on your 60 ft time. With stock tires, I've heard that a 2.0 flat 60' time is respectable and should bring all your other times down accordingly.
