View Full Version : 0-60 in 4.56!!??
Joewit 11-17-2006, 11:46 PM On my way home tonite I decided to do my 0-60 on my interceptor gauge and got 4.56!? Could this be right, I know I got to 60 fatser than I ever have but 4.5!? Everything worked real well on the car, good launch,minimal clutch slip in second. Look at my mods in my sig and tell me If you guys think it right. Im at 250whp and 242wtq

no offense ur dreamin man, that guage while giving usefull data i have seen it spew pure garbage.
Joewit 11-18-2006, 12:01 AM I figured it was wrong but wanted to see what you guys thought, Usually this thing has semmed about right, most of the time I'm around 5.7-5.9.
^^^with ur mods and traction that sounds much more accurate
Joewit 11-18-2006, 12:09 AM I definetly think it was better than I've done before but not that much.
vtecduster 11-18-2006, 12:19 AM you never know when you accidentally catch that right patch of pavement. Our engine is capable of that type of acceleration, but the rest of the car isn't. that just seems too fast.

I have yet to catch the right pavement! I stopped on the freeway (it was 2 AM) and went 0-60 and I spun the tires until I let off the gas, and that was on that course freeway concrete!!!

I did it at the same place I always do and its actually a little bit uphill, but ya never know

Man that guauge does throw out pure garbage. I can make under 6.0 with just stage 2. I dont get it. with your mods you should be 5.5 at least.
Joewit 11-18-2006, 02:29 AM Should be able to is the word there^, i don't consider myself very good at driving this car yet
LandonElf 11-18-2006, 04:50 PM Car and driver got a 5.9 out of a bone stock 05 Cobalt SS Supercharged. The same people also got a 5.5 out of a stock SRT-4 and even faster in a stock 05 Mustang GT.
So if the car can pull 5.9's stock, and you have a setup that is essentially stage 3, then i don't see why you couldn't break in to the fours with some great driving.
GTO's run 4.9 right out of the box and some talented/well modded SOB's on this website have actually ran down a GTO in the 1/4 mile.
So all i'm saying is that its possible. Do some more runs and post your results.

FWD and traction might have a lil something to do with it.
