Quater Mile ?

Please - Can anyone tell me what they run in a 1/4 mile in their CL-S w/ c.a intake, headers and full exaust ...... I know some haters here in Miami running lip about our cars. I have yet had a chance to run my car so I have no clue. I told them maybe high or mid 13's (don't know). Thanks

Who's running lip in Miami? What are they driving? I think it's low 14s with I/H/E

They are driving a 03 G35 sedan. Maybe you know what would it run w/ I/H/E/SC ? Becauce they said they read in some magazine that the Comptech Acura runs 14's . I told them thats impossible . But I don't know. Thanks for the reply.

There are guys here on the board, with time slips, that are running 14.1 - 14.2 with the AUTO CL-S with intake, headers, exhaust and pullies.

Yes the article of the SC CL-S said that they ran a 14.2. That just means ONE THING, the guy driving, could NOT DRIVE A LICK!!!! Also you have to remember that that car was built for show, NOT for go!!!

Most of the 1/4 time slips I have seen for the 6 speed have been in the mid to high 13s.

I am guessing that the SC 6 spd, with a GREAT driver, will be in the really hi 12s or very low 13s. With the SC, traction is a HUGE problem.

Red Rider has the SC on his auto, and let me tell you, NO WAY HE IS RUNNING 14.2 1/4s!!!!! He will be in the13's EASY!!!!!!

Keep you eye on this board, you will see time slips for the SC CL-Ss soon, and they will be in the 13s!!!!

come on...how can you say that?...13.9 is the best time for any 6mt to date not on the juice and my 13.79 is the fastest over all again no bottle ,no FI...now mid 13's are coming be assured of that ...but , and im pretty sure it'll be tough to get the blower cars into the 12's but low 13's is possible with the right driver

The guy in the G35(*sedan) wants to race - I told him he is going to lose for sure. I already raced a G35* and whooped him up - the sad part was I had 3 other people in the car - I had the G35 by 2 cars at least.

that 60' sucks ass.


it's funny that an auto w/ an open diff. can launch so much better than a 6mt w/ hlsd.

typeR has run 2.0, i've run 2.1's. (on street tires)

you would be running as quick as him if you could hook up.

YEA ON N2O .

Ok CL-S stock should do atleast a 14.9 . Add headers and take away .2 , 14.7 . Add a better exhaust and I would say 14.65 .

And those are my estimates here in humid S. Fla .

wouldn't a 13.9 be around your average time? you don't consistantly run 13.7's, right?

i think it is the car, nobody has gotten really stellar 60' on street tires. are you that much better of a driver? have you even driven a 6mt cl-s?

i can run a 1/4 in 13..... minutes

I'd say a 6 speed with an Intake/Exhaust and headers will run a 14 flat.

An automatic with the same bolt on goodies would run 14.2-14.3(guessing).

now if you want to get into the upper 13's you got a few of options
#1. if you got a automatic trade it for a 6 speed and get a PERFECT R/T off the tree.
#2. Comptech S/C
#3. get out the N20

the kist was developed by a former board member that was the service manager of rick case acura...he's moved on and yes he shipped the kit to my dealer and they installed it...warranty intact except for the engine itself...which did/does come with a 12mo.12K mile warranty from him but install not included...

If you do that on stock street tires... normal conditions.. I'll give you $100!! It's practically impossible... I couldn't do it on drag radials... my best is nearly a 2.1 on the 6-spd. AND.. I know how to drive... been drag-racing for nearly a decade.

If I were you, I'd be more worried about your 13.79x time-slip

You seem very bent on that fact... honestly its very impressive... but 6spds without a 3.5L conversion should be able to match that time with bolt-ons.

my best in my auto is 14.2 w/ just intake and headers

i have gone 2.2 on the 60' like 5 times, thats with stock springs and tires, so w/ some lighter toyos and stiffer springs a 2.0 or 2.1 is very possible

oh i never even concidered stock tires ...but with some toyo T1-S's on a good 60* dry day id say ill go 1.9 in a 6mt all my 2.0's came with the toyo's on the stock wheels ...as far as my time slip...i love a friendly rivalry ,just understand im not done...also all the bolt ons for the 6mt have been there for a while and even you with the draggers didnt match that time...so....bring it ...but remember if im not right behind you ...im right in front...

I don't want to start a new thread - So maybe someone can answer me - Can someone please give me any information the Apexi V-AFC. Here in Miami, I went to SFPerfomance and they told me I can't control my v-tec w/o messing up the engine somehow, but he said I can control the fuel and then dyno tune the car ? So please, can anyone give me some more info. ?
Thanks

Talk to Frank he is the Gu-ru for the SE for Acuras/Hondas. I talked to him before about a VAFC and he told me that he dyno tunes at least 3 a week. He even told me that, I could go ahead and install it myself and he would give me all the parameters for Fla. weather conditions, so that I can drive it down there to have it dyno tuned.

Don't worry they can have ur VAFC do what Apexi intentional made the thing to do .

You are probably correct... street-tires vs. street-tires, I'd lose everytime I spin the end of 1st everytime and most of 2nd during hard shifts everytime... sucks for me huh!?!

It basically boils down to the dyno and the E.T. - get it any which way you can while being NA

There is NO WAY to run anything better than a 13.3 E.T without 285whp or some kind of massive weight-reduction - that's the bottom-line. It's driver and traction beyond that.

I don't really want to put $20G and made a 10s NA Acura CL-S cuz it can be done... trust me! I'd rather fund my wife's MBA.

I think a 12s NA CL-S with < $2500 in cash TOTAL for BOLT-ONS
is something folks can relate to.

Actually I think TypeR CAN pull a 1.9 60-foot on some sticky tires and proper driving - us 6-speeders absolutely cannot, hence we automatically give a 1/10-2/10th advantage to the auto tranny cars.

Slick vs. Slick, it might be more even... although I wouldn't launch a CL auto-tranny on slicks

Please remember the point here is not to dog on anyone... just saying what is a reasonable expectation and what isn;t.
