unbelieveable! For your 3200 lb eclipse to run a 14 anything, you will need more than bolt-ons. All the bolt-ons dont add as much power as you think they would. Usually, you end up w/ your stock flywheel rated power as being your wheel power after cai, exhaust, header, cams, fp, pulleys, etc. W/out severe weight reduction, it takes a hella of alot of extra power to go from mid 16s to low 15s high 14s. At best you can run some solid 15s but thats it until you do some major work on either weight, or motor. I mean, gsts run low 15s stock with more power than you would have with all the bolt-ons I mentioned, more torque too. Lets get real. Throw some nitrous on your n/t then talk to me about 14s and 13s.

Is it me or does that MPH just seem ludicrously low for running a 14.46???? All of you guys claiming to run low 14/high 13's need to produce some slips, only one I know of that can be verified is Billy Mack...the rest of you I seriously think need to find some serious proof before you start making such bold claims...... Not gonna be the one to say it can;t be done, but in all honesty, with the mods you guys are listing I see no way in hell for a 2G to get anywhere near the times most of you are claiming...And I also wanna know just what in the hell this mystery "VTEC like" setup Xhypno is running on his 1G comes from or is derived from, never heard of anything like that either.....[email protected] at virginia motorsports park

at this point I really wanna see a video to back up the claims because to me I wouldn;t put it past someone to post someone elses slip and say it's theirs. Like I said, the only one that can back up his time out of this whole thread so far is Billy Mack, the rest need to put up or shut up......
