thanks man. i feel like mine is quick for what it is. i've never seen another LS w/ LS tranny run anywhere near as quick as mine. most seem to run mid 15's (bad drivers?). i've beat plenty of B16 swaps, turbo D's, gsr integras, and a couple LS vtecs even. best i've gotten it to go is a 14.7 but i think now with my new suspension, i should be able to drop a tenth. i think with my rear shocks blown it was lettin the front lift too much causin bad wheel-hop into 2nd. shes nice n stiff now.
shootin for low 13's at least next season. plan on runnin a low-boost setup till i get another engine built.

14.7 just as fast as my brothers cobalt ss/tc. my goal is to eat him alive in the 1/4 and have not spent a 4th of what he spent on his car. and non-vtec is the only way to roll. vtec is overated imo

thanks man.
threw the front lip on this morning for shits n giggles. man, i cant wait to get this body work done and get her painted. cant decide whether to paint it this winter and boost in the spring, or vice-versa.
i just know either way, come next summer she WILL be a ROTM contender
.... its gonna be nasty.
