another ecotec goes 14.8!!!
Saturday, October 14, 2006 6:24 PM


Finally got a 14.8!!!! I was so pumped. It was nice and cold. Probably around 45 degrees.

This will be the last time my car sees the track before the turbo goes in. I could keep squeaking a little more and more out of her, but I already have all the turbo stuff right here. I'm going to be using the setup that was on Brandson's car. Heck I even had the intercooler mounted in place during the run! lol Everyone seen it and thought I was turboed cuz I ran was runnin 14's! haha I had to pop the hood to show them it wasn't!!!

I also had a 14.9@89 and 15.0@89 to back it up.

To make it even sweeter there was a 02 style v6 eclipse in the other lane spraying a 70 shotand I still crossed the finish line 1st!!! I beat him twice! lol

WOOHOO!!!

whoops... I guess I forgot the date. Thanks Lash! I filled in the correct time.

Thanks guys. I was soooo close to getting a 1.9x 60' !!!

It was kinda weird though. I have trapped as high as 92mph before. I guess since I got such good traction I got to the end faster and didn't have as much tiime to get up to the same speed.

I talked to a few cobalt SS owners, but none of them ever heard of the org before.

I'm not entirely sure if everything in my profile is up to date. So here's what I had on the car at the time:

AEM Cold Air Intake
Stock Throttle body
Stock intake manifold
Lightweight crank and alternator pulleys
Pacesetter ceramic coated 4-1 header with 2 1/4" piping all the way back
Magnaflow Hi-Flow Cat
Borla Pro XS muffler
24" resonator
an el crappo bending job going over the axle
Lower Motor Mount
BFG DR's on 14" steelies

lol Thanks!

Thanks ACER, I hope it all goes on without many problems. The only thing that kind of intimidates me is putting in the fuel pump.

Thanks... but LOL 12's! I doubt it. I'm probably not gonna run more than 10 lbs of boost. Maybe in time. My goal is like mid 13's for now.
