I just ran mine and ran 10.1. At 72 MPH. Well this was on in october. I just have racing beat header and straight through exhaust. And mechanical Secondaries on street tires. I beat every Honda Civic Si but one and he ran an 9.9. So I was very pleased. Everyone wanted to know what I had under the hood. and when they looked the look was well that's it.. That thing is tiny. :bigok:

That time was when it still had the 12A in it, stock carb but rejetted, rb air box, rb header, rb presilencer, 2 1/4" straight pipe to a rb muffler, weight reduction (nothing to major) no emissions, no spare, jack, tools, storage bins, a/c, or any a/c related items, few other little tricks.

wrong section. but how do you rejet your carb and what are the advatages of it.? Can I just take it to a guy that rebuilds carbs and have him put in what size jets? I have the same exact things you had done.

I don't know exactly what they are but I will find out, I do know it was a little richer, does yours have a lsd? (4:10)? That 12A was a screamer for what it had done to it, may altitude makes a difference as well, (or even air temp.) Do you know what your car weights? Mine was 2380 with me in it and about a quarter tank of gas, I weigh about 170...
