What's everyone running on their 6-speed cl's w/ comptech headers. I tried to do a search but didn't find much, mostly auto.

 

A 6 speed cl-s with headers should be able to achieve high 13's in the 1/4 mile, joe5.0 ran a 14.0 with just icebox and drag tires.

 

i dont believe ive ever seen any timeslips of a CLS6 breaking 13's.....besides the ones with the 3.5converstion

 

allmotor broke 13's with just bolt-ons

 

It depends on traction, & driver skill at the track. A 6mt with headers only should get you in the mid 14's. Headers & other bolt on's should net you low 14's.
Extream bolt on's like allmotor's will net you lower times.
As will a good 1/4 mile track driver like joe5.0 proves.

 

I thought stock 6MT run 14.5?

 

2003 Acura 3.2CL Type-S 6.5 14.9 - assumed 6sp
2002 Acura 3.2CL Type-S 6.8 15.0 - Auto.. obviously as its an 02.

 

I highly doubt that 2003 is a 6MT

 

hmmm good argument

http://www.albeedigital.com/supercou...0-60times.html

dont see any other reason for an 03' to be 1/10th faster than an 02' unless its a 6spd.

 

why would the 2002 TL type-s be faster than both of them?

2002 Acura 3.2TL Type S 6.2 14.8

I don't know how much I trust that site.

 

Theres no need to base times from magazines, based on some of the results we have on the board a cl-s 6 speed with a good driver, headers, a good set of tires will achieve high 13's in the 1/4 mile. Many auto's have run low 14's with a few bolt ons and the 6 speed is about .5 faster stock. I myself ran a 14.3 with just intake and headers. (auto)

 

and 16" slicks and head work.

 

1/10th is nothing. The same car could run 5 back-to-back runs with the same driver and the same short times and run times that vary by more then 3/10ths.

 

i dont think he had any head work?

 

99% sure he did

 

i dont think so ..but he did have if i remember the comptech fly wheel ...funny im surprised more people dont ...

 

lets not forget altitude.. I'm sure I'll get flamed but its real. Check out the NHRA. They have correction factor tables. I myself am at 3000ft+barometric pressure so my car will run marginally slower here than at sea level.

 

Yeah I might be wrong on that. He did have an extrude honded manifold and larger TB.

 

For example:

A 14.0 @ 101 MPH at 3,000 ft is a 13.61 @ 103.65

 

I guarantee mine would run 13's w/headers, but wont find out for sure.

I ran:
14.5 @ 96.5 110% bone stock
14.29 @ 98.5mph dr's on stock wheels
14.0 @ 98.8mph lightweight 17's w/same dr's, and icebox

It took ALOT of practice to get that 14.0, most of the runs were in the 14.1-14.2 range. I need wider/taller tires to absorb some shock and get 2.1 60's to break the 13's as it sits now.

 

it could be cos you haven't around long.

 

it's more likely because only one car has done it...N/A that is,and that is the above mentioned allmotor

 

www.car-stats.com is more accurate - Both are 2003's and they list the tranny

0-60:
5.9
Transmission: Manual
1/4 Mile:
14.6

1/4 Speed:
98

0-60:
6.5
Transmission: Automatic
1/4 Mile:
14.9

1/4 Speed:
96

 

As I said driver skill comes into play & so does weather. Even with my fully modded 6mt I could only get a 14.4 in hot & humid south FL.

 

man i didn't think the CL's were actually that fast. it may because of the alitude. In that case either way i can't wait to see how my porsche does execpt i take it real easy on the tranny. How much does the CL way out of curiosity
