Well so far I have a 03 cl-s 6 speed and i have AEM CAI and greddy evo2 exhaust. Im planning on getting the headers soon but I dont think that itself will just cut it out. I want to hit around 13.6 NA and w/o any force induction. Ive seen other people say they hit 13.6 or around that area all NA. Can anyone help me out here?

try some rocket fuel

only 2 cars here have gone 13.6 one a 6mt at 13.5 and another an auto at 13.3...it'll take just about every bolt on there is and good traction...good luck

Headers, pullies, thermoblok spacers, 3.5L, mugen cooling mods, tuned unichip.

does therm spacers really help dat much?

I can get your CL-S (6spd) to run 12's NA for $6K - without stroking the motor. I was well on my way to achieving this but had repeated clutch issues... in fact, my clutch broke on my 13.5s pass, hence it was only 13.5... With some weight-reduction (200 lbs is a good 2/10'ths) and a good launch without clutch-slip... 12's are very achievable.

I was thinking the same thing, I haven't tracked my CL-S yet but when I do this spring I hope to see low 14's as I have been draggin since I was old enough to drive. With a 1.60 ---60 foot time consistant on my other cars I am a little conserned with the front wheel drive traction off the line, more than the top end as I know from experience this makes all the difference.

I would go with some good slicks on the front to start. my

And strap a rocket to the top also

Push it off a cliff.

m&b6speed

thats good
what would the 60' time be there i wonder, wouldn't have to worry about traction

i second push it off a cliff

That's an easy one!! acceleration is 9.87m/s^2... you know the mass, so you can figure out time

d = gt^2

So plug in 60 feet, 9.87 m/s^2 and you can solve for time. Of course, you have to convert feet to meters or vice-versa.

You could complicate it a bit with wind resistance, but its the first 60-feet and that wouldn't have such a huge impact

Good luck getting a 1.6 60' with anything less than a fully built drag suspension. I'm guessing I could probably hit 13.6's with mine if I had some slicks, headers, pulleys, and did a bunch of weight loss.

What would the $6K do? So im also guessing the 2 10" subs i have in my trunk arent helping me that much either hehe. Allmotoryou mind sharing with me how you got ur car to hit 13.5 NA? As of now though Im in the process of looking for used comptech headers for 6 speeds or saving more up to get brand new ones. I was thinking also if i should sell my greddy evo2 exhaust and put the money i get for that into my headers. I heard stock exhausts for the cl-s are already free flowing enough and comptech headers work fine with them. Any advice would be appreciated. AND no I'm not going to get any rocket fuel or drive my car down a cliff lol.

CL's aren't race cars, guys. i understand your need for speed, but didn't you guys buy them because they are mid-size, luxury, performance coupes? why would you do weight reduction on a CL just to get it to break 12's? you could get a civic hatch with a GSR motor, strip it, and have it break 12's for 1/10th of the price.

i think if you were going to go fast in your CL, it would be way cooler to do it with a full interior, without a loss of lux. otherwise, it's just another car.

allmotor_2000

Exactly!

koolmonkey999

lol i just want to hit close to 13.5 easily. Im quite sad b/c i got toasted by a 350z wit intake/exhuast(or thats what he claimed to have had). I could take or hang wit a stock Z but yeah. I know Im suppose to lose the race against a Z wit intake/exhaust but thats just got me more motivated to make my car 13.5

allmotor_2000

At 13.5... you'll hang with M3's (stock ones)

koolmonkey999

Yeah well hopefully with I/H/E and the thermo ill get here. HOPEFULLY lol
