*cry* 15.935

[Asymmetric]

Alright so Pimp and I hit up edgewater today and after running 16.3 Stock I had my hopes up (granted it was in the 60s when we ran the first time)

CAI
SVT TB
SVT UIM
= 15.935 @ 87.00

damn i suck @ driving

[Asymmetric]

oh yeah it was 83 degrees acording to the car

[Ludwik]

60 foot?

Hey now.. going from 16.3 to 15.9 is a HUGE improvement.. at least you can say your in the 15's not 16's.... :)

[Asymmetric]

60ft 2.319

thanks for the encouraging words btw :)

Sometime this week the Magnaflow Exhaust from Trubendz and the test pipe will be here :) cant wait :)

thats gonna be loud

[Asymmetric]

eh, i have a friend with the magnaflow~it's not that loud :)

[mond12345]

I have headers, test-pipe and a magnaflow catback and its not TOO loud but it does make some noise but its perfect for me.

[Asymmetric]

heh, right on~I'm looking @ a set of WR headers right now they havent been used~

[Tygerr]

My first run at edgewater was like a 17.5... yea. Don't feel too bad.

[Asymmetric]

Heh~I did run a 17.3 on my 2nd run ~but thats only cuz it popped outta first gear @ the line~Is yours an ATX?

[B3NN3TT]

2.3 is a pretty good 60-foot time. Install that exhaust.

[Asymmetric]

When it either A) stops raining or B) i get access to a lift it will be installed :)

Also, the heat is keeping me from putting it on

[drummerboy827]

Seems like a pretty good trap. I ran a 15.8 in my cougar with an exhaust and intake and trapped the same. What are you shifting at? Maby your shift time needs to be improved as well. The cougar is geared really crappy for the 1/4 mile. That 3rd to 4th shift at the end robbs so much from the run. Try practicing shifting more quickly, if you can gain a tenth of a second on each shift that's a 3 tenths faster time which is probably about max for that setup iirc.

Also try to take out the spare tire (if you didnt') and that mat that lays over it. You could also take a couple psi out of your tires to give u a better grip at the line.

[Asymmetric]

thanks for the tips~yeah 1st thing is my Launch sucks~yes my shifting sucks~but as for the other 2 suggestions, done and done :) Took out the spare tire a long time ago~gave away the jack @ the prefest mod meet and the tire, i dont know where the hell it went. as for tire pressure, i took out about 8psi outta the front

[Tygerr]

Yea, it's an auto but that was my first run ever. I got it down to a 17 flat, and am now running a measly 16.5. I'm quitting.

16.5 with headers, exhaust, SVT UIM, SVT TB, and CAI? That seems terrible, even for an automatic. I'd expect at least a high 15, or am I mistaken ?


My best run with just a Short Ram, SVT TB and UIM is a 16.8.

[michcougar]

Not with auto your not going to hit no high 15's with those mods.
i have all those mods and 5 spd best i got was a 15.6.
he has a 2002 which are proven to be slower in the first place (aerodynamics)
and its auto ...

[Asymmetric]

update...ran the first week in october (roughly 68 degrees) and ran a 15.417 with :
-GMK CAI
-SVT TB
-SVT UIM
-Trubendz Borla center muffler dual exhaust

no spare/jack

so hrm, must be getting better oh yeah and ive lost 15lbs myself since i last ran :)

problem is now im running on 23LB 18" Konigs...goodbye 15s

[drummerboy827]

Nice improvement, it's amazing what cold air will do for your car.

[Asymmetric]

aint that the truth :)

[BlackBetty]

yeah Cougars love cold air, i love how my cat sounds in the winter... too bad I cant run a 1/4 then..dam snow..
