I am sure that you would improve your 1/4 time a bit. And it doesn't cost a dime. Really BAD reality TV is the reason I stopped watching MTV.

I am sure that you would improve your 1/4 time a bit. And it doesn't cost a dime. I will vouch for that. I have reduced my eta time from low 16s-15.9s to a 15.6. Get in your practice. Then all the mods th guys above listed./ Get some good sticky tires, intake, exhaust, header, pullies, flywheel, clutch, LSD. That will be your 3K. Have fun my friend. Dan

Go ahead and throw a short shifter in there.

(too bad you can't twin turbo inline-4's ) but turbos are spooling a whole lot faster these days. Last edited by sPeEd4tHeNeEd; Aug 31, 2003 5:14am.

I don't know about that. You should be able to hit 13s, but thats if you can drive, you may have some serious traction problems, so good tires and an LSD plus clutch.
