Hey its post ***** supreme[sm=hail.gif][sm=hail.gif][sm=hail.gif][sm=hail.gif][sm=hail.gif]. Yea dude, be sure to take it slow, like one or two mods a month, and by mods I mean one big one, and or two small ones, you'll get there, hell I've done most of my mods within the past few months, like within the past year, only damn problem is that the rest of them on the board are expensive, very expensive, well the engine stuff anyways, I still have tons of cosmettic stuff left to do. But hey, what's the point of looking fast unless you're actually fast.
They're gonna change yours to Post ***** Wannabe if you don't watch out.[8D]

Hey that could work. I run 0-60 in 8.7s, but somehow I managed to do it in 8.4s one time, and on christmas eve the street was wet and I spun out all the way to 60 and hit 60 in 6.9s with no traction, but once I gained my traction, my speed droped to 47mph, but that was still pretty cool. I don't know what my 1/4 is, but I'm sure it's somewhere in the 16s. I dynoed at 125.4 rwhp and because of my 9mm wires the tachometer wasn't giving them a reading for my exact torque, but the approx torque of my car based on its rwhp was about 230lbs of torque which would explain my ability to fairly rapidly accellerate for what little hp I have.

Mines set up for autocross. But to answer your question, last 1/4 mile run was low 16's. Then I added the gears, throttle body, porting, and tweaked the tune. The drag strip is closed for the winter til May.
BUT, I tore up an EVO VIII at the last autocross.

Hey watch it, soon, even with my stock gears, I'll own you Harv once I do my split port conversion. But yea, I had 150 hp off the crank, they told me that my year looses about 25% power to the rear wheels o an auto which comes out to 112.5 rwhp, so I have made some gains.
