Oh, I wasn't offended. But my 13.3 was with a 8.69 1/8 time. The 8.5's were at a different, only 1/8th mile track. Had I hit 8.5s I probably would have been 13.1s or 13.2s.

melchoir, it's not the car it's the weather. Every week the DA is getting worse. Wait til winter and you'll times will drop nearly half a second.

Decent times. I think your real issue is that you need a tune for those long tube headers that you have on your car. With that tuned you'll probably gain over 10whp, and over a large spectrum of hte curb.

DA right now is worth a good 2-3 tenths once winter weather hits.

I'd say a tune is the first in line for fix considering the exhaust mods, but just my $.02.
