High mileage TL-P turns a 15.18 1/4 mile..

The good news is I have I/E/H and the bad news is I have 126,500 miles on my car (sales rep). But I ran it in cold air with my newly added OBX headers and was real happy with the results. Thought you 'd all like to know. Only ran once as I don't want to break it, tranny especially. Only other perf. mod is Bridgestone Potenzas size 205 55 16 on the stock wheels. My first run when the car was new was a 15.55.

That's great news. I have a 2000 TL-P and ran 15.7 with only intake, but haven't had a chance to go back to the track since I added headers and exhaust. I have 50,000 miles and hope I can get that good of a time. Do you know what the exact temperature and humidity was? How much gas did you have, and did you do any other prepping? Sorry for all the questions just wondering.
