I serisouly think its all about the driver.

did you ever say if it was an auto or not?

if its a manual...then its all about your left foot, and not your right.

It's a V6, what are you expecting?
Oh please.....don't let me start! [:@]

Wasnt trying to bash, personally i think thats decent times for a 200hp V6
Just seems like you're expecting a little too much? that was the point I was trying for.

high 14's are what stock 5.0's run with same power ....................

Um, How is it possible to run 13.9 stock v6?? And then 13.3 with just CAI & Exhuast - tune and 20's

When im running CAI - Exhaust - TUNE - HEADERS!!!?????

Maybe i lost speed with these headers i never really felt a big diffrence with them?
Maybe it's just me but i think i might of lost power?

I need serious help .!!!

i love my wheel's too much to let them go .!!! If i would get a dramatic diffrence from a 20 to a 18' inch then ill do it ? but just for one tenth of a sec...not worth it

35 pounds a wheel that's 140 pounds all around ,

well are you an auto or stick?

and as far as 14.9 stock it probly took 10 runs and a great launch that broke the car after that lol. but it depends the location track conditions. im sure with perfect conditions and the right track with radials or maybe stock tires you could squeeze a 14.9. it would probly have to be a pony package because it has better suspension and a stick so you could launch hard.
i did 15.26 100% stock (tires, tire pressure, spare, jack etc) in arizona in may. so not exactly the best racing conditions, so i can see someone on a cold day on the east coast going 14.9 if they can drive.
+1, and i dont think you have the pony package do you fazm? the pirrelis are quite a bit stickier than the stockers on the base models, and 15.0's have been done by a couple testers on a totally base model, so i'm absolutely positive it is possible.
correct, i did that on the gay 215 bfgs.

i did go 14.9 with just a tune though (in warmer weather)
