Dude for those mods those are great numbers. Just driver mod stuff will make you run faster times.

Elevation has a lot to do with it too, that may have hurt you some. But thats not a bad time really, a little more and you'll most likely be 13's.

Lol , I dunno why somone would call bs on a 14.2 , thats what mine ran dead stock . With your trap u have more et in it . If can eek out a 2.0 60 and have a clean pass , it should do capable of a 13.9-14.0 et . Your 14.2@101 is pretty damn above average time though compared to what most run with that little mods .

You better do the cooling mods or you will get slower when it gets warmer trust me . I dont have any cooling mods( rectifying that this year ) , I can run mid 13's @ 102-103 in cool dry air . Put me at the track in the summer heat and humid air and Im hard pressed to even go 13.9@100-101 .

cobra heat exchanger will work, look for a dual pass plate too, major problem with the eatons are they are unefficent and get heat soaked very quickly

yes, h/e will help just fine. If you don't want to run meth, you don't have to. But a h/e will help more than you think.
