Well i know that this thread is no where near as exciting as some of the others on here but this should be quite a feat considering what is done to my car. Memphis Motorsports Park is having a test and tune on Saturday morning. The mods to my car are:
1.6 comp cam roller tips rockers
Comp cam chromoly 1 piece pushrods
Moroso CAI with K&N filter (which needs to be clean)
Aluminum elbow
TB bypass
Pacesetter LT headers with custom xpipe that dumps at the rear end through Dynomax Bullet mufflers (2.5")
Midwest 3000 stall converter
3.73 gears
PCMforless tune
and the only weigh reduction is no spare tire and skinnys on the front
255/50r16 MT et streets on the rear for the traction
I am hoping for a 12.96 or better :metal: There should be video taken and when there they are post i will post them on here.

You might have a pretty good shot if you can get off the line hard. Best of luck with it!

i strongly feel you will get into the 12s, A4s w/stalls run killer 60' times and with your mod list it should carry you the rest of the way..:peace2:

Stall, gears, and LT's do major justice! I can see this happening easily.

Well I got it but not by much!
60'=1.797
1/8=8.25
1/4=12.98
mph=104.38
Started to pick up a miss right before this pass then ran one more pass at a 13.22 at 103. On the way home the miss got worse. Time to check the plugs and wires and all that good stuff. There was a pretty strong head wind but all in all the weather was pretty good. It was 60* about 10 mph winds clear skys and i have not idea any of the other weather stuff. LOL Time for some weight reduction and more power and will hit it with some spray and hope for 11s for next spring.

Hey at least you got it! You should be able to knock that short time down a tad too....there's some left in it.

Yeah i think so too. I still have the front sway bar on so that should help the short time. I think i can get it down to about a 12.80-12.85. I need to mess with the shift points a little. I am happy i got it though. Here is the video.

Good job. I honestly think it was the helmet. Without it you would have been a 14 sec car!

LOL Thanks Paul for letting me use that helmet. That thing is nice. Thanks for all the help man. To bad the skinnies wouldn't have worked. That way it would have looked even better running the 12.98. LOL Let me know when you decide to sell those and I will pick up some spacers and put them on all around. We should have taken a picture of it!

Nice job, but I hate to break bad news....

That miss that you are slowly feeling more and more is exactly what happened to me last season when my opti blew out. 4-5 passes at NED with the new cam and BAM she was cutting out and missing on the way home (got worse as I got closer to home).

Luckily it dident start cutting out completely until I had pretty much made it home.

So check the basics first, and if all looks in order then you might be thinking about a new opti soon........

Yea I was looking at some threads on here and camaroz28.com and noticed that seems to be what is causing the miss. It is due it only has 151,000 miles on it....LOL. I have all the receipts of my car from both owners before me and not one receipt shows new opti.
