13.57 stock port S4.

Just did it. 1988 SE All stock port, RB header, Cone filter, weight reductions, and 14" slicks, got me a 13.57 @ 102 MPH and 8.5 in the 1/8 mile. 60 FT times were 1.8.

Just passing along the good news.


PS: the slicks gave me 1 full second faster. prevoius runs without were 14.58 @ 94 MPH and spinning first and second and pull 2.6 60 ft times....,

How much weight reduction? I'm not going to be a ***** about this but others may cry bs. It would be wise to post your timeslip.

How the hell did you manage to get the trap to jump 8 mph. If you trap 102 on slicks you should be trapping even higher on street tires. You should tell the track their timing system is off....

Not ''hating'', it's hard to debate physics.

You'd need a 2000lb car to do it with what you've said for mods.

Yes more mods.. but stock ports. stock clutch..etc on slicks...weight reduction was the key factor, getting it to weight under 2000.

And of course you're not going to specify how you got it that light, right?

OK. We all agree that he needs to post proof. Please no more "post your timeslips replies".

Needless to say, a timeslip can lie. I have one that says my NA ran 12s, so timing mistakes happen. Repeatable runs are required.

Part of clubs rules are I can not release any information given to me by the car club, they have over 10 years into developing parts and setups that work. Unless your a member..

What else can I say... it has a sealed cold air box that makes 3 psi @ 70 mph in the box.........

GLHS- Your full of crap now. Instead of capitolizing on their parts design a club is making it stay secret!?!?!?!?!?


You get the BS from me.

Oh and a Time Slip is not part of your mods so post it!

Guess this idiot declined to read the Ram Air article before he goes and makes up a story?

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

Repeatable runs on high quality video would be extraordinary proof.
