So Much to do, so little time...

I'm sitting here looking at my things to do list for my car...not to mention working full time, taking care of kids and everything else going on...

Still waiting on my TTR engine mounts, and tranny bushings to come. My axles should be here early next week or by sat. and my clutch/flywheel are out of stock and they said it should ship next week. This means my car has to sit for about 2 weeks. So frustrating waiting around for parts to come in the mail.


Anyways, in the mean time I guess I can do the other things I wanted to do. Install my gauges, clean off the left over tint stuff from when I had to take it off, weld and fix my highflow cat, touch up the chips in my paint and give it a good wash in and out.


So, what does the cobaltss.net community expect my car to run in the 1/4th with BFG drag radials, GMP manifold, exedy clutch/flywheel, ZZP downpipe with highflow cat, B&M short throw shifter, stage II axles, tranny and motor mounts, dual pass, and H/E? Ran a 13.6 @ 107 before all those mods...will I break into the 12s?

I hope so. I will be about 150-200 pounds lighter also. I assume with GMP manifold, ZZP downpipe w/ highflow cat, dual pass, H/E = 15whp

Then I have the strong axles and clutch so no slipping problems.

Mounts, and Drag radials for traction.

No reason 200 pounds lighter, traction, and 15 more hp should not shave off more then a half second because I hear traction alone yeilds gains of a half second.

If I hit mid 12s I'll be so happy you have no idea. I can tell you one thing for sure, If I make a mid 12 pass no more cash into performance mods. Going all looks next...

going all looks would just slow u down again lol.

also, its going to take u a couple runs to get used to the new mods, the radials the most. i say goodluck but 12.5 is not going to happen i dont think. maybe high 12's if ur lucky.
