Mid-High 14s in the 1/4 mile most likely.. too many variable to take into consideration. I'll have some track times coming this Saturday.

There was no 97 300ZX, so pretty much, everything beats an imaginary car.
Who the hell cares anyways?

Just because you run 8psi doesn't mean you can automatically beat a certain car. 8 psi is just a number to impress the ricers. It is all about hp/tq. Someone can be making 20 more hp than you at the same pressure.
