Default Fastest V6 on CF? I sure hope so...

60' - 2.06 (bad, gotta work on the launch)
1/8- 9.065
mph- 77.81
1/4- 14.182
mph- 95.58

I've also got some problems. It's deep in the rev limiter through the traps (6300rpm). It's falling on it's face in the upper rpm's (pig rich). I'm also testing something that might have been my cause for problems, my ebay CAI. I don't think it's letting it breathe at high rpm, might be choking it off and causing the rich issue.

With a tune and a good launch, it'll see 13's easy, no doubt about it.

Congrats,those are impressive numbers for a 6 banger.
You should be on pinks @ speed tv to embarrass some V-8 Fords.
Were you at PIR Saturday?
Wonder if you saw a couple friends of mine there,my buddy Doug's good friend Craig was there with his '60 Morris minor powered by a 454 Chevy.
Cool little street legal pump gas hot rod,7'' shorter wheelbase than a VW bug.

For you youngsters that might not know a Morris,it was an English econobox back in the day.

What color is the Morris? I think I saw one. I was at PIR last night.

I FOUND THE PROBLEM!

DON'T BUY EBAY CAI's! I took mine off, and voila, lean. But holy hell does it run good up high. Time to make my own CAI, this piece of crap is a trouble maker.

Never again will I preach "a tube is a tube" when it comes to these things. I'm shocked at the difference. Throttle response is incredible now, and it really pulls good up high.

Wow looks like you can even beat the 2010 V6s once you get your CAI figured out (I think those are in the low 14s like yours)
