Hey roktbox, i dont think your hp calculator is too accurate. i said that i had 291hp to the flywheel when the only engine mods i have is downpipe and a k&n panel filter

edit: just noticed that it said "rear wheels" so that might be why its off

it is off. it put mine 30-40whp above what mine really is. This one is almost dead accurate for me.

maybe by next summer I'll be ready for the track...it's kind of funny...my dad wants to race his mustang against my car (69 mach 1....yeah, I know i'll get my jerk whooped), I suggested racing his new car against my volvo...(he got himself a 06 acura TL)

his words...no...you'll beat me. (kinda funny, his new car is no slouch and has about 50 more horses than I do!)

Suggestion: Would you consider modifying the 1/4 mile list to something like this. I did this on another forum and it works great. It is a little more detailed. Just worndering.

Cars: STOCK 4,6,8 only

1.)

2.)

3.)

4.)

5.)

Cars: 4 cylinders N/A

1.)

2.)

3.)

4.)

5.)

F/I 4 cylinder

1.)

2.)

3.)

4.)

6.)

5.)

7.)

8.)

9.)

10.)

F/I 6 cylinder

1.)

2.)

3.)

5.)

Cars: 8 cylinders N/A

1.)

2.)

3.)

4.)

5.)

I= Intake

H=Header

PM=Ported Manifold

Fact.=Factory Manifold

E=Cat-back exhaust

T=Tuning

P=Underdrive Pulley

DR=Drag Radials or Slicks

ST=Street Tires

N2O=Nitrous

TK=Turbo Kit

WI=Water/Meth Injection

PB= Ported Blower

Fact= Stage 1

I don't think we need to list all of the supportive mods, just the main power mods. I'm open to suggestions to improve this, and we can make more category's as this grows. This should be a good start, lets get some slips e-mailed or pm'd to me so.

A guy on Turbobricks in Alabama ran an 11 @ 123mph on a Dohc redblock that is nearly stock (I think), the other night.

I went up to Sears Point for the first time tonight and pulled a 16.08 @ 84.57 in my stock 854 T-5R. I didn't power brake at all, I'll do better next time... Had fun though!
