Here's my slip https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...chmentid=33176

I'm obviously on the left side with the 15.031, you'll have to maximize the picture to see it clearly.

Whats the point of running the 1/8? If that's all you're gonna do, save your money and just do a stoplight run or somthing lol.

I'll be posting 1/4 mile times tomorrow night when I get back from the track. All stock except for CAI, I'm gonna leave the spare and jack in too. 24 foot elevation.

What's funny is I can probably 90% ensure everyone that you already took out the spare tire and jack and you're just saying that you're leaving it in. Otherwise you wouldn't have ever even mentioned anything about the jack unless you were taking it out.. Don't worry man, I don't hate ya

i had three runs b4 they closed an heres how it went
acura integra with mods= SPANKED
mitsubishi gs with mods ex intakake ect ect= Spanked

No, I REP 838, I'm really leaving it in, cause if I get a flat on the way to the track I dont want to call a tow truck.

That's a good MPH probably your launch wasn't that good maybe in the 2.5 range at 60ft..
But the car has potential, you where 1mph less of the pace IREP838 had when he did 15.0 at the 1/4. Probably IREP had everithing off the car in that run..spare,jack..etc while you where full interior..



T-rush..

But if that was really your time, and your RA is stock like you say it is then that's kind of an incredible time. That would mean in the 1/4 you're running faster then the 15.7 that the magazines say this car runs with the stock setup. At that rate in the 1/8 it sounds like you would have landed a 15.3 - 15.5 in a full quarter mile.

I have Cold Air and exhaust but that's all I have on my car. A B&M short shifter as well. I'll be in the mid 14's by next week.
