Default 0 to 60 stats for FBO?

Curious what the 0 to 60 times are for those with FBO (headers, exhaust, tune, and tuned intake). My F pretty much has been transformed with this combo but was curious how much it's really improved our 0 to 60 times.

I don't think anyone has gotten a true measurement. Traction is a big problem after FBO.

Interesting thread. So many FBO ISF owners and not a single 0-60, including myself!

I remember I saw a video from someone where he got 0-60 in 3.88 seconds. I saw it on the IS freaks facebook page so I have no idea what the video is called since it was a few months ago when I saw it. SOOOOO no one's going to believe me because (no proof = didn't happen) lol. Once I get new wheels though I'd be more happy to record my 0-60 time as for some reason my car came with 18" lexus G spider wheels which... are heavy.

@Alizia I watched that same video dozens of times lol and you're right it was 3.88 seconds. I tried finding the video again on YouTube, but had no luck . Wondering how proper his 0-60 was done, maybe he could get it faster if he was at sea level.

Besides buying one of those expensive boxes, what would be the proper and accurate way to measure the 0-60 time. Phone apps and a stop watch just aren't reliable enough.

Stock vary too, from 4.2 to 4.7. Too many variables, tires, driver, weather, elevation, the engine itself, accuracy of instrument used to measure, etc.

How much power do you get from FBO with that tune?

75-80whp with FBO with the tune from what I've gathered....Which is a pretty significant NA improvement. Guys have shaved a full second off of their 1/4 mile times (from high 12's to high 11s) and from trapping 110-112 to 118-119....So not sure if theirs a way to calculate 0-60 from these numbers..... Guessing their is, lol.

I figured this would be traction limited also. I got 275's in the rear and if I gun it from a stop, there is definitely a good amount of slippage. There is so much more torque down low now with the tuned intake.
