Default What are you header/cai/catback guys running in the 1/4?

Please list what times you are running in the 1/4 with these mods. I'm looking for times from cars specifically with these mods so that I can get an average.

Headers [Long tubes, mids, or shorties?]
Cat-back [Brand]
Cold air intake [Brand]
Tire [Brand, size, street or drag?]
Any cheap/free mods [1LE elbow, tb foil, tb by-pass ect]

Also, please list what gears your car has, and if they are stock or aftermarket.

So if you have a car with just these mods, please post what times you're running. Thanks!

I kept a notebook with every mod and from day one and I tracked 1/4 ET results every weekend following an install. My ET results were from the following mods in order.

1/4 ET - Mod

14.1 - Stock
13.9 - Borla
13.7 - Nitto Drags
13.6 - Moroso CAI
13.5 - DblAdj PH/LCAs & LCA Relocator
13.2 - JetHot Longs
13.0 - BFG KDs 315s @17psi
12.5 - GM847 &1.7 RRs
XX.X - DynoTune (THREW ROD never made it to the track)
THE END

stock = 14.8 @ 94.5
+ SLP CAI = 14.4 @ 97.3
+ 3.73 gears = 14.1 @ 98.7
+ mac headers, carsound high flow cat, SLP loudmouth, new plugs & wires = 13.8 @ 102 (bouncing off rev limiter due to no tune for the gears)
+ madz28 tune = 14.0 @ 101.5 (very hot and humid, swapped out PCM at the track and gained 1.5 mph with madz28's tune over the stock tune)

all runs were made with sumitomo tires. all runs had 2.1-2.2 60's.

after all that I went to my LE3 383.

See my sig. Time was run with 3.42s but I just upgraded to 3.73s. I'm swapping out my Konis in the rear for some softer shocks and I'm gonna buy some BFG DRs. I know it's got a high 12 in it easy if I can make it hook up out of the hole. And all this is WITHOUT LT headers.

13.1 @107.8 w/ pacesetter shorties, ORY, magnaflow catback, moroso intake, bbk pulley, PCM for less tune. bald 245 street tires,stock 3.23 gear,stock convertor,fully stock suspension, and Orlando Speed World is kinda a killer on short times. Only pulled a 2.15... I know w/ a better 60' i could go 12's on street tires at Gainesville or Bradenton (both FL tracks).

A full exhaust/cai car SHOULD go 12s on a tire. Add some tuning and you'll be there for sure.

If you ran a good DR, slick or cheater slick then yes, 12s for sure when you nail that launch.
