Same reason I ran the quarter in my truck -- because it's there! I've taken every vehicle I've owned to the track at some point just for the hell of it. The nearest 1/4 track is 2+ hours away but I always manage to hit the 1/8th because it's nearby.

When I took my old 93 Grand Marquis (bone stock) to the 1/8th mile they accused me of spraying because it ran 10.20s. Took my 01 Grand Marquis (intake and programmer) and it really shocked 'em with 9.90s without a LSD like the 93 had. Those were just my daily drivers; my Dodge Stealth "weekend car" ran 7.80s in the 1/8th and 12.50s in the quarter with a only few bolt-ons. My current Subaru family sedan (not a WRX) ran 13s stock and will see mid 11s this year. After all, everybody needs a money pit on wheels!

BTW, my truck runs 15.9 @ 86 with the programmer. I don't doubt the 5.9's torque either -- I've always said my 92 GMC (extd cab, 4x4, 5.7 tbi) was much faster 0-30 than my Hemi. All the mods I did to it (similar to yours) added even more torque without much change up top.

 

Yeah, maybe I will-- but I worry that I'll break something in the rear if I'm on a drag strip in my dodge. It only has the chrysler 9.25 in it. If I had 4:56's with the lsd, then that's a lot of torque going to the ground instantly. It's no D60. Lol.

 

i do it all the time i used to with out the s/c now i just eat em up...my buddy hates it...his f150 is the one i always beat up on....tryn to get him to get a s/c and see what it does for him....rydeslow for the record i didn't doubt it i just wanted to see numbers too and ill tell yah thats impressive...now i need to find someplace i can do some dataloggin with my s/c and see what im laying down...out of sheer curiousness....

 

yeah it's always fun to find out what the actual numbers are. i want to do a 0-60 on my camaro, but I had it pro tuned I don't own a SC for it

btw, im still waiting on a response from cherryram?

 

went out did a cpl runs the first one i did was 0-60 and came up with 7.88 sec and then i went and did a cpl 0-70 and not as good as you can see they are high but i couldn't hook as good on a different street...i don't have many streets here i can do this on with out getting a ticket so ill have to do it some more when i get out of town a lil more...too many po-po's

 

once the snow clears i will have my times

 

i think i can do better... i just gotta find a spot i can do multiple runs....silver you prolly know what thats like being in the city....

 

we still have plenty of places that i can do a run at there are only like a couple streets that are always full of traffic.

 

guess im in the busy parts over here....

 

Rydesolow,
You are showing great numbers.
No disrespect intended but I ain't buying it with the lift, gears and tires you are running.
