    I ran a 15.8 in my Probe GT. Discovered that I didnt have a rev-limiter so I was shifting at 8,000 rpms.:D That was with 120,000 miles too. Good car. I don't think I'll ever drag the scooby though.

    No idea. I hear my car (SVX) runs in the mid 15's @ around 90ish.

    I average about 13.4 @ 103 mph. My best was a 13.19 @ 103.92 mph. If my car is running right by Oct, I'll probably see you there at the drag strip. :)

    12.86 @113mph 1.9 60'

    The car needs traction and I should see low 12's

    Matt, your car has the potential to run low 12's and maybe even high 11's with your trap speed.

    All it takes to run a decent 1/4 mile time is to hold the revs about 4000 to redline and slowly but quickly let off the clutch while pushing the gas to the floor at the same time. And then shift quickly (don't jerk the shifter) from gear to gear. It may help to shift about 500 rpm before redline so you keep the motor in its powerband, but I have not tried short-shifting like that before.

    My friend tom has a Spec V and he's got a Gtek.

    Will you be out on Uni this weekend? I could ask him to bring his.

    btw. with his Gtek I'm running 14.6 in the quarter, but I have not done any mods to my car...

    I have yet to run the 1/4, but by the specs and according to others with identical setups, my car is good for 13.4 or better ( I have a catless up-pipe in addition to the Cobb Stage 2 ). I wouldn't consider myself a great straight line racer, so I wouldn't expect any great times ( I baby the car too much ). I held my own on the track though and had no problems shutting down Corvette, Porsche, BMW, Lexus, whatever.
