Pretty awesome man, what are you running? Wait, I'll just read your sig.
and somehow you managed to make two new threads of exactly the same thing? actually 3, one has a different name.

That's great! I wondered how you'd do. It gives me hope. If you go again after the 19th, I want to go.
That's how I was imagining I'd do it... Low RPM launch, and then hit it.

Good work :) Fieromx3, in his photos it looks like he cut a big hole in stock airbox, does the trick I'm sure

Thats a real great time man. Especially without a CAI. I know these cars will do mid to high 13's on sticky tires. Its all about the launch. I ran a 15.0 at 98. Trap speed is there but my 60 ft time was a 2.8. I think with a 2.0 60 ft time id run a 14.0 at 100 mph.
