Feels great
took a few tries but got in! whether DA was a factor or not i made sure i got in and boy did i get in
These cars are full of surprises and ask me how i know..7 passes into the 10's
Two of the fastest passes: (No spray of any kind) Just *****!!
60' 1.621
330 4.601
1/8 7.031
330 4.601
1/8 7.031 @ 100.70
1000 9.124
1/4 10.880 @ 129.44
60' 1.61
330 4.582
1/8 7.003 @ 101.01 MPH
1000 9.089
1/4 10.842 @ 129.27 Booyeahhhh!!!
Wanted to mention a few names of guys that worked on my car and helped me on what i call the revival or the comeback from what was a nightmare for me and off course the car itself.
*JR and Pat @ REDLINE SPEED WORX for putting this engine together and for having it ready in a timely manner so it could be driven 6 hrs to get tuned. Not to mention how strong and smooth the car felt/feels..Keep up the good work
*After two previous tunes in my car i finally ended up with Jeremy @ OE TUNING who backs up a great product with nothing but great numbers (track numbers) In my book the guy is the real Master Tuner !
* Last but not least Suppy, Bill and the guys @ LM24 in Deer Park,NY for fixing the Sub-frame for me and the ideas on my cooling system, starting with the Meth, Split Reservoir, pumps etc. as well as a Full custom Exhaust with X-pipe, TB Y-Pipe and nothing but a great team of guys.
Jody,Alan, Charlie, Ahmad, BK for all the advice and all the little tricks...

Fricken sick brotha! I told ya, it was just a matter of time before you smashed into the 10's! Keep on having fun with what you do....dragging that 4 door sedan!!!!
It's nice to have another OE Tuned 55 in the 10's....more will be coming. I predict Sun, Charlie, and BK will hit 10's before winter is over.

Luis, it couldn't happen to a more deserving person.
I remember when we were getting tuned in VA and you left, heading back to NY, and had to turn around and come back 20+miles because your car had gone into limp mode, car wouldn't shift out of 2nd gear. All I could think was this mother****er is crazy to keep messing with this car because it is cursed. Well yeah brotha, it is now cursed with 10s!!!
Congrats

I guess we were wrong!Super Member
Folks, I think it's fairly obvious what it takes to reach 10s w this car:
Pulley
LT Headers
Big Bore TB
A solid tune
Upgraded cooling components (H/E, pump etc.)
