Default What should my expected quarter mile time be?

haven't been able to get to the track yet, but the mods I have are as follows:

MAC O/R Prochamber
SLP LM II
Motive 4.10 gears
K&N SRI
Steeda Tri-ax

So what should I expect? I am a pretty decent driver so what SHOULD I be running with those mods?

With street tires I would say ~ 13.9-14.0

Really? I would think it would be a little better than that. I know people who have run a 13.9-14.1 stock.

if u can get traction then i would assume 13.8ish...stock w/ a catted mid and slp catback i get 13.97 @101.5..they say that 4.10's give you about .1 secs

also that is if u can drive and not be a baby to your car when it comes to the track...i certainly dont

13.50@104 should be a good run for you.

if 4.10s give you .1, you should have your car taken away. i gained almost .5 from 3.90s alone from runs 2 days apart.

Probably can get into the lower portion of the 13's if you power shift as well but you must be able to hit the clutch, shift, and dump the clutch in less than a 2nd w/o missing a gear or going into the wrong one. If you are not comfortable doing that, than don't. Doing it wrong will screw things up.
