 Subject: My 1/4 times * any ideas???
IP: Logged
Message:
went a few fridays ago to the track in Edinburg, Tx. my first run there was a 16.8, then a 16.3, i went home satisfied. That was with a 180 stat, homemade ram air setup, and the IAT sensor relocated. Now, i changed my intake, I got a cold air setup made outa 3 inch PVC pipe with a K&N in the fenderwell, and i also put a Magnaflow exhast single in dual out, no pipes after the muffler. Friday night I let my friend make the first run, 17.6....WTF!!?!?! that isnt right, the truck felt pretty strong that week, so I ran it against a lightning, (of course i lost) but i ran a 15.885 @ 85.03mph, i finaly broke 15's , then i ran again agaist a RX7, smoked him with a 15.938 @ 85.16mph. My next step is headers, im a poor college student, so money is tight, any thoughts???? thanx, Eric

Hate to bust your balls or ball,
but my v-sixer run 16.8 on a bad day with 87 octane. I admit it ran a 17.8 stock but you should try to get some octane booster and try racing with only a 1/4 tank. Take off some weight for the track, spare tire, tail gate, and speaker boxes.
i duno if it helps but i usaly wax the truck before i run it.
I dont run it any more since its got like 80k and is only getting slower with time.
now you know thats..................
