I decided to tahe advantage of the beautiful weather we had today. I haven't run the 1320 in over a year, so I was curious to see what if any of the following changes would do to my times. Bear in mind, the fastest my car had previously gone was a 15.327 (I forget the speed) with my wife driving at GAP 2003. Incidentally, my best time at GAP '03 was in the 15.4xx range. Changes made since then: Changed SLP/Magnaflow cat-back to Borla cat-back
Changed Random Technology cat to factory cat
Removed CAI and replaced with factory GAGT airbox
Added underdrive crank pulley
Anyway, today I ran a best of time 15.322@88.85mph; I also set a new best trap speed of 88.97 on a 15.339 pass. Nothing earth-shattering, I know, but consider this: These runs took place in the middle of a sunny day (about 80 degrees outside)
I ran with 17" wheels and street tires, while most of the faster NA guys run on 15" drag radials
I had well over 1/2 of a tank of fuel
The only track prep was removing the spare tire and jack
I have added weight from big front brakes and heavier anti-roll bars
I suppose it's okay.
