Sounds good but how about a hundred shot, maybe in third gear? And that should run me, what 5G's?

I wouldn't do a hundred shot. The anything else I'm talking about is other parts/bolt ons to put you in the 14s. N2o would probably be the cheapest. I don't know how much you want to spend, but a cam and race pcm might do it as well.

Well, I've got the AF/X being installed tomarrow and the next thing I'm lookin at is a Crane #12 or is it a Crower....?I thought a cam was only around $240 and the N2O was like $500 for a dry shot through the intake activated at Full throtle? How loud do you think my exhaust is gonna be w/a gutted cat,straight through muffler and pacesetter headers, + that intake?

Probably loud. I have everything stock to the cat with only a catback exhaust and mine is loud. I would say its sound is pretty comparable to a SRT4...just not quite as deep. Its loud though, if you're in the car behind me and I downshift you'll hear it. If I were you I would run it with what you got and see what you can do. You might be surprised.

I will. I'll run her as soon as I can and post for you guys. My car even with a cat could be heard three blocks away. I would drown an SRT out at idle even if he was on his way into third. Without a cat I'm thinking I could shatter windows[sm=guilty.gif]. Sorry to hear about your bad night, I'm thinking maybe motor mounts are a bad idea if you were having problems hooking up. My car is dropped to the asphalt and has P195 60R14's and the Strut bar, so I hope I'll have alittle better luck than you, sorry, I think you could pull mid- 15's, just keep at it. Maybe when it gets colder you should try to scheduall some private track time. I'm having problems w/ my STS too. It's all stiff and won't rebound at All. Any thoughts?

Oh damn...my car pulls so much harder with the mounts in. Hard enough that people that rarely ride in it can tell. The problem with that is I have crappy tires that can't put the power to the pavement. Tracks close up here this weekend for the winter. Snow will be here shortly.

Well you know what that means...time for some 17's with low-pro street slicks.
