Not bad at all for that balt. I've ran a 12.5 on pump gas with a bunch of 12.6's. now that I'm on e85 and pushing much more boost I'm not sure what I'm running now.

Test drove an ST today, stout car for what it is, very usable power but not really fast. I guess it is quick relatively but im used to a stalled ls1. Awesome interior love the recaros. Shifter is perfect, very easy to drive, the ride is great, felt like it would be very capable when thrown around but didnt push it with sales guy in the car. Be a great DD but house comes first.

One last thing I like the looks but my gf looked at me and told me it reminds her of a dodge caliber

You lined up with one? I would assume youd win, youre modded. What were the times? Some of the graphs Ive seen are nuts, 270-290lb/ft and 220-240hp at the wheels. I posted the highest and lowest Ive seen. Few tuners are working on one now.

I wasnt the fastest stocker ever. Jst spun like hell on the 225's and ran a 14.3 @ 104

Ran a 13.7 @ 106 gms1

Then as stated pn hptune.
She is a beast when i have traction.

May take tmans advice and strap the shocks to see what it does.

Just stuff some peewee footballs in the rear coil springs. It works awesome and only cost me about $32. All I do is literally drive to the track, scoot my *** under my car taking a hand-held pump with me, inflate them as needed, then deflate before I leave the track. Dropped my 60ft an average of .15 seconds consistently. Best part is you don't need a portable air compressor and you don't have to remove them afterwards.

Not my car, but this car is on stock springs:


My car is lowered on Pedders and they still fit. You have to COMPLETELY deflate them to stuff them in there though. Then get them oriented so the tips at each end of the ball are vertical between the spring seat and the upper bumpstop and face the filling nipples inwards so you can lay on your back under the car and pump them up. Works like a bawse.
