Default Expected 1/4 mile time....

Anyone know what my expected 1/4 mile time should be with SRT Intake/Race ECU w/ Borla Exhaust, I'm going to Moroso next weekend when I install my borla. The temp will prolly be around 85 with not much humidity.

99 GS400

I think you should be in the low 11's being that your engine, ecu, and fuse box covers are off I am gonna take mine off and meet you at the track By the way I gotta get some duct tape and staples for your exhaust install See you soon !

Let me know what you got. It will depend on your launch a lot! If you spin too much you will loose a good .2 sec. I expect around 14.5 with stock diff and T/C with a half way decent launch. I don't know how fast that track is though. 14.0 is unatainable with only exhaust and intake UNLESS it is a fast track & you have a perfect launch. I would like to see a 14.0 that would be sweet! T/C; TM plugs; LSD maybe. I think the very best post on a N/A GS400 was 13.8 with several MODS and tuned on a dyno. FYI

The above suggestion seem to sum it up pretty well. Question: have you been racing before? If not... don't be discouraged if you times are not as quick as you hope for. Drag racing definitely takes practice. Go for it, have fun and let us know how you do!

If the driver is any indication of how fast the car can go 1/4 mile then futuregs will probably make it in about 2 hours as it took him 45 mins to drive 2 miles to my house I think he might be able to push it down the track faster !

your just a regular Leno aren't you.

But I'm not the one that confuses my 99 Headlights with those of 2001+ style.
