There is no way a bone stock CL-S will do low 14's. Unless it is like 20 degress outside, with 0% humidity, and a 50 MPH TAILWIND.

Bullshit! I ran a 14.29 stock. First you have to break torque to 6500 rpm, then you just mesh the gas. Have your pressure set to 15 front 45 back. You get maximum traction. My 60's are 1.8's consistently. With intake I run 14 flat all day long. Keep in mind this is with the spare and a full tank of gas. I could probably be in the 13's no problem with all the little gimmicks you guys use to pick up some speed.

Is it really a good idea to brake torque to 6500 RPM?

And with 15 psi in the front won't you lose out on alot of trap speed? I would think launching that hard you would have serious wheel spin.

I'm saving now for h/e/p. I hope around March I will be able to pick up a used set of CT headers. I don't think i'll be back to the track much before then.
