yeah, first time I made 14.8 @ 97
I since added
-Steeda STS
-Rota wheels subzero 17/7.5 @ 16.5 lbs
-Kumho 712 215/40/17
-Energy lower engine mount
-2.5 inch rear exaust (removed launch box)
-removed back seat and few extra unneeded parts
-put back air snorkle and made a deflector to feed cold air to K&N typhoon filter
I hope for at least a 14.6 or maybe a 14.5
I dunno, I take it has it comes, I am already happy running 14.8 with this crappy tranny gearing for 1/4 mile. :lol: I feel I stand where my power and gearing puts me, anything better with those figures would be a nice improvement, a guy like tom ran a 12.99 but he has double my hp almost, it make sense that he his in 4th gear for longer, but with the JRSC you barely toutch 4th but you cannot stay in 3rd till the line, so it cost you some times, you know the car is faster than a 14.8 its just that we are at a huge disadvantage with the JRSC because we trap in low rpm 4th.... I bet a MTX75 or a Mini cooper final drive that is longer than ours would put me low 14's.
