RE: To get in the 14's
ill get the tune, then go to the track on every test and tune night! i do have 18s hope that wound discourage my runs.......no gears yet............i would love gears so the car pulled torkier!

Well man its doable! It isn't hard but takes some setting up. Mid 14's aren't easy, only a handful of us have hit it. High 14's are a diffferent story. Not hard, get a good tune and some pratice on the track. It might be harder with 18's, do you have gears? That is another directions you might want to go....good luck!

LOL yep its really easy cause sooooo many have the 14.5 1/4 mile. Nick has got a great car and if he ever gets modding he'll be the one to hit 13.9 or better on a good day.

RE: To get in the 14's
Those 18's will def. slow you down a bit. Like Rmays said, it isn't too hard to drop to high 14's, but to hit mid 14's you will have to start looking for details.
Running the stock 16's at the track will make a big difference in weight, and def. take out the spare tire, jack and snorkeling gear out of the trunk!
I don't think there is much of a performance difference between the C&L and a TI, however the tune you get to run can be a difference maker.
3.73 gears/Tlok would be the next route I would go followed by LCA's and alum. driveshaft.
Good luck and have fun!

RE: To get in the 14's
yea fazm went from like a 15.2....?(i think) to a 14.7 something with just a k&n and tune. Hopefully i will be able to hit the 14's this weekend, but since it will be my first time at the track, ill just hope for low 15's and be extra happy if i hit the 14's.
