Default New Best!(Bolt-ons)

Finally the track opened today after it had rained last week man i was psyched!!! I havent run since September 15th!! I got there didnt even have time to uncap the borla first pass netted a 13.3 @ 109.80 after a horrid clutch slip and missing second gear smacking the revlimiter...next pass was about an hour later clutch held cut a 2.09 60' and went 12.8 @ 111.7x ohh i was pumped you can see what my old time was in my sig! now it was time for eliminatious ugh! I dialed in at 12.8...Lined up launched at about 3k felt good the clutch held woo! Car felt strong got to the end got my slip and here is what it was

Reaction - 1.0021(haha i was sleeping lol)
60' - 1.97(stock 56k clutch!!)
1/8 ET - 8.21
1/8 MPH - 88.16
1/4 ET 12.6390
1/4 MPH - 111.96

Woohoo!!! <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> Allright this is whats done to my car!

Whisper Lid w/ K&N
FTRA
Whisper Maf Ends
MAFT(0/0 havent really got around to tuning the car haha)
FLP Headers w/ offroad pipes
Borla Catback(wide open)
ASP Underdrive crank pulley
Pro 5.0
Nittos @ 19-20 PSI

These runs were with the stock 56k mile clutch and stock rear end with stock gears..the clutch was slipping a little so a new one of thoose is in order....as far as weight the car is FULL interior even had the spare jack and tire in actually had a few other knicks nacks in the car so it was pretty loaded cause i didnt have much time to take anything out before i went today...Ohhwell a new clutch and some weight out i think it'll do a little better but for now i celebrate woo! <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
