It's vfaq, which stands for Visual FAQ or Visual Frequently Asked Question. It's a bunch of FAQs with pics....

I'm curious. I got back from my second time ever at the track tonight and my best run was:

R/T - .336
60' - 1.840
330 - 5.343
1/8 - 8.242
MPH - 84.23
1000 - 10.754
1/4 - 12.848
MPH - 108.06

I've got the same set up as BigAeVO but with Buschur parts and 264/264 cams. I only dynoed 263/259 on their MD. Would you say I have a weak EVO too? From what I heard, I should be trapping much higher too. I did fail to mention the only BR part I don't have is the Catback. It's a Greddy 3''. I think it's my failed part and I will be replacing it soon! (2003 EVO)

Yeah, that's pretty weak. You also have good parts and tuning, but 108mph is indicative of a very lightly-modded Evo. I would expect you to be over 110, but I doubt the cat-back is the thing holding you back.

Despite the fairly weak mph, you could still hit 12.5s pretty easily with a decent launch.

i may have other factors that could be holding me back, im running on 18's and im a bigger guy 6'1 215, just a suggestion thats probably not why im running slower.

I'm 225lbs, but yeah, 18s can hurt if they are heavy. Rotational mass is a big acceleration killer, but that wouldn't kill your traps.

This is the extent of the neckdown on the HKS HiPower cat-back. While a restriction, I'd say it's a minor one at most.
