Monday, March 10, 2008 10:05 AM
i ran my car sunday for the first time at the track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My best time was 17.483 @ 79.66

My best R/T was .184
Best 60 Ft was 2.452
Best 1/8th was 11.214

My car had just a custom cai and 2 inch exhaust whit a new cat and glasspack.
i plan on breaking into the 16's soon

I'd say before more mods just keep working on your driving and launching. That 2.452 60 foot time is pretty slow and indicative that you just dumped the clutch at the line instead of doing a quick slip. Even with the 2.2 you should be able to hit 2.2xx 60' times because of your manual, that alone is going to get you hella close to 16s.

The 2" exhaust isn't really doing much though, upgrade to 2.25" to make some power, and add a header at the same time. That plus an underdrive pulley and some mounts should get you close to 16s, or into them depending upon the launch.
