15.69 in my 2.3 at Import Wars in June at Great Lake Drag Way in Kenosha Wisconsin. Hope to improve on that greatly with the VAFC, Full Ignition, and N20

I have done 15.89 with just an intake - short one at that, and a trunk full of sound system, full tank of gas and work equipment. now, this Friday, I hope to do around 15.6-15.7 with nothing in the car but me and 1/4 tank of gas.

Ok does anyone remember what they were running before all the mods? Before the intakes and bottles and all that?? I looked up the 97' 3.0 and it said it would run a 16.1 in the 1/4 mile....stock....is that right? does anyone remember what they were running before all the mods....im sure i got the factory freak 3.0 cuz mine is soooo clow for some reason!!

(could it be the extra weight i have form the 2 12's and the box in the back....i didnt think 50-75 lbs would matter much)

15.85 @ 86mph ... all with 110,000+ miles.

I wanna see what I can run w/ just my intake now. Anyone down to run to the track again? Maybe in a few weeks since you guys just went to 75/80.

Yeah, what mods you have again?
Did you strip useless stuff out of your car or were you fully loaded?

My trap speed was about 85 to 86 every time.

I'd like to get into 15's

15.85 @86

-AEM CAI
-DC Sport CC Headers
-Greddy SP Catback
-KYB AGX struts (i think i set them all on stiff front and back)
-H&R springs
-Denso Iridium Sparks

I didn't advance the timing...but i've done it before with no improvements. Launched at a tad below 3500 rpm. Oh I took out my pass seat and spare...but that's about it. The 15.85 was my best 15.8 run and I was there w/ shatooi, dustbuster, juice, and a few others... it was a fun night.

Maybe I can make it out and run when you all go again. Can't do it in the next few weeks though... too busy.

I need headers...
