That is impressive with just a CAI. Imagine what it will be with headers/exhausts, denso plugs, and pulleys!

Thats about right. With CAI he should hit 14.8 in that kind of temps.

My buddy on his CLS got a 14.5 with pulleys, headers CAI. No exhaust.

Binh dont be mad that your car is slow.

Where do you buy the pulleys and are they worth the price for the gains?

In ss i ran consistant 14.80, i picked up a tenth when i shifted manually, allowing me to rev out first a lil more and still be in vtec when i hit second...Launching, i torque braked with traction control off, no spinning a lil hop and i was off...Im not planning on doing headers (too much $$), or exhaust (i like the car as quiet as possible, it is a luxury sedan), or pulleys (gains are usually very minor, i have a lot of drag experience), or denso plugs (what difference would that make?)...Maybe ill put this mystery mod (intake manifold thing) and see if i could pulla 14.5...I dont think that should be too hard at all...Thanks for all the great comments guys..

Where do you see rain? Weather.com lists as partly cloudy as of 9pm.

If I'm not going to run, can I just go there and watch? Where is the track exactly located in Englishtown? Is it near by the flea market?
