Don't know how anybody ever got under 6.0s for a stock 8 as quoted in some mags - not even sure I can make it with all my mods.

whenever I feathered the clutch my recorded times were worse. I dunno why but I am sure of that... dropping the clutch and controling wheelspin with throttle gave best results.

Tried a 1/4 mile run on gtech for the first time today .
14.60s @ 99.2 mph .
Think I could have done better if I had let the clutch out all the way sooner as I don't think I had any wheelspin.
Was a little dissapointed in my elapsed time (with all my mods) but my trap speed looks very promising
Will wait till after my dynotune before seeing If I can better that.
just did another run :
14.46 @ 101.7 mph
Have tried getting wheelspin but I just bog it down so these runs are done by feathering the clutch . Also I hit the rev limiter for an instant in each gear with this run . There are better times to be had I'm sure but my clutch is starting to hate me

I just had my 2.5" Ferrita rear muffler with 3.5" tips installed today! It sounds great, with almost stock sound at idle and a nice deeper throatier growl when you floor it! Dyno test on Wednesday.

Thanks Brettus, G Rover and RotorManiac! I am in a "boosted" mode and gonna try to squezze every hp of the Renesis engine (280+hp) and then tear it down and do a stage 1 streetport. I haven't the chance to do a full 1/4 mile becausse of limited length of the road. I will do some runs this weekend. hope to go 14.5s or faster. What's the fastest 0-60 mph with bolt on mods right now here on the forum? That's without slicks but ok with R.tires!

We had our car at a show at Irwindale for Kumho Tires. Also got a chance to make a few passes on the 1/8 mile strip. Car is set up for B Stock SCCA autox, so mostly stock. Has KN drop in filter, Borla muffler and Koni shocks. Alignment is set up for turns, around -1.8 camber in the rear, so the launch is not great. Tires are Kumho V710 road race tires, 245-35-18.
RT .519
60' 2.185
330' 6.180
1/8 9.448 @ 74.91mph
Around 6:30-7:00pm would guess temp was around 70.

Congrats Brettus! Nice number and still 0-60 mph? Did you try any 1/4 mile? I will be out on the streets today with my G-Tech Pro cause it's a sunny cold (+3c) day here in Stockholm lol.
