goin to the track again sunday.
maybe it'll be warm enough for traction and 2.0 60's.
Its supposed to be cold down here in MD so I don't see how it could be warm up in Jersey.
But ragardless good luck.
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.

whoop who's ..butt
well not warm, that wouldn't be good, just warmer than 30 like it was last friday when i went.
maybe ill get some daytime pictures when i'm at the track..if i get around to washing it
it's pretty much gross.
we'll get to see on sunday if the rksport underdrive pulley really makes a difference or not..
maybe 14.8 for the skwirl??
me vs mandy = side by side racing action at the track
the camera is coming with me this time.. we should have a video of the showdown very soon
15.149 @ 91.26mph !!!
Damnit i tried for 14s today, but was running consistant 15.1s and 15.3s. Im putting my upper mount and control arms wish bushings back in this week. Hopefully that will get my off the line a little better the wheel hop is still killing me. How did everyone else do today?

busy as hell, 2 runs and both were screw ups
we need to go another friday night mandy
I am not sure if it has been asked before, but I will ask anyway..
I have an 04 with automatic trans, high flow intake, cat back exhaust, and an auto transinterceptor.
My best run was 16.203. 60' 2.25. trap speed 84.5
My brother has a stock 04 with a 5 speed no mods and he catches up to me at the end and beats me. His trap speed is like 87 and his time was like 16.1
Will a header 4-1 or 4-2-1 be better for my application, also I was looking for a high flow cat but RK sport said the magnaflow on would not fit the ecotec motor... I think it could be custom welded but I am not sure. Also, will the upper and lower mounts really make that much difference in 1/4 times?
I may purchase the GM s/c to help push my cavi to the 14sec. range.
Any suggestions about headers or mounts etc?

dude, i don't know if you know this, but what you just did is referred to as a "thread jack".... please go read the FAQ in the performance forum, it should answer most of your questions

sorry for that... I am a noob and I don't know any better.
I read the post under performance, but I didn't get much from it... I was just looking for some feed back from people who know people who have similar upgrades and their results.
sorry for the mess up

the 18 inch wheels are probably more of a problem when it comes to wheelhop than the tires are. if your stock tires were Eagle RSA's than with enough power and practice they can get you to 2.0 60' times and 13 second 1/4 mile times... if they're the really cheap price club special ones though, i don't think they'll do much to cure your wheel hop.
