sorry, but that is a pathetic time. My wife's corolla can probably pull those numbers. you should be a solid 1-1.5 secs faster and about 6-7mph faster ET. Is your car running poorly?

the launch wasnt pretty bad either...I'll put the numbers later on. I hope the exhaust wasn't to big that it made it slower....

The launch and gate shifting are the keys. Torque braking, lighten the load (remove all unnecessary things from car) 1/4 tank of fuel tires properly inflated and weather all can make a difference.

what he said......your short ram is sucking in all the hot air from your engine bay....doesn't matter how cool it is outside if your engine is hot
