I say either the "add two cylinders" mod, or a decent size turbo, or blower even

Gear and a better tire and you could be close.

Not going to talk to much crap about 15's but in this day in age that is very slow. Hell you got neons, trucks, and four wheeler's running 15's. Maybe you might think about blowing it or maybe even nitrous. I really don't know what to say man. I never thought I would see anyone on this site talking about 15's.

my 2004 jeep grand cherokee with its 4.7L HO motor makes 265hp and 325 tq stock and i have a cat back exhaust and a CAI, i run 15.2's with is and it weights north of 4300+ pounds with me in it, and i usually run with a full tank of gas(for some reason it likes it better) my 50 pound sub.

i kill neons and hondas and cougars and all the crap. one day i was at the track and had some dodge turbo desiel pull up next to me, i thought i had the race in the bag and the guy ended up running a 14.1.

Gears my son, Gears! You gotta get that 60' down and thats the best way to do it. Get yourself some 4.10s and some tires.

i dont even think gears with slicks will do it for him. my jeep has 3:73 in both diffs and is alot more heavy, i had a 2.2 in the 60' and ran the 15.2. he needs gears and more horsepower
