Need a little more POWER!!!!

I ran a 8.101 @ 85.97 1.81 60ft yesterday in the heat is there any mods that will not add boost that I can pick up a tenth. I was thinking about PSP fast air. Right now I just have a open filter.

Just need an extra tenth so I can get my 7.999.

what is 7.9 equal to in the 1/4 mile? High 12 you ran right?
As for small mods you can do what you want, I'd just hold off till it cools down, or I'd try to get my 60 foot times down. Keep your money in your pocket if all your looking for is 1/10th. You've already got chip, filter and pulley. And You've got the tires for racen' I'd just wait for a cooler day and go to the track with the mods you have, you'll see more than a tenth off your et... Thanks, Shane

A free tenth.. EASY!!!!!

Passenger Seat , tailgate, Spare tire, Front sway bar....Bye Bye.

Also try taking the negative lead off for ten minutes before your run to reset the computer. Sometimes its worth a 1/2 a tenth.

Put more air in your front tires so they roll better.

Make sure your totally cooled down.


This should help.

ShaneMcKenna203: 7.9 is closer to a mid 12 12.5 12.60. I ran a 12.705 so I'm pretty close.

VINNIE : I like those mods they are free. I allready have the spare tire out. Next time I'll take the hitch, tailgate and swaybar off and see how it does. So doing the battery sometimes helps a little!

For most cars, 7.99 is like a 12.38 quarter mile.

If the computer adjusts to your driving style and you drive normal then it might help to reset it. That way the only thing it knows is WOT..
Some say its worth a tenth. I have never seen that myself , but I have seen 1/2 tenth but then again there are too many variables to know if that is what caused it.
Its free and easy...So its worth a shot.
