i'm going to the track April 1st,it will be my first time and just wanted to know what i should expect to get, also how much RWHP do you estimate my car is making? mods are as follows: Mac CAI, BBK Shorty headers, Pypes O/R X pipe, Pypes violator mufflers 2.5" catback w/ turndowns, UD pullies, Smog pump delete, ford racing plugs/wires, BFG g-force sport tires on rear.

75k miles, stock 2.73 gears, differential rebuilt.

also would it help at all if i bought octane booster from my parts store and put it in when i went to the track?

let me know what you think. Thanks guys

I will figure that you are an average to below average 1/4 mile driver since it will be your first time (or did you mean first time with this car?). Also since I don't know the condition of the track you are going to also I will stay conservative. 15.0 @ 94mph. For dyno numbers, if the engine is in good condition I would say 205rwhp and 280rwtq

these threads never get old

you did say if it was an auto or 5spd, but either way i would guess anywhere from 170 to 190 rwhp, and mid 14s to low 15's in the quarter

if you bump the timing and run a short belt, should go low 12's/high11's

it is my first time ever going down the 1/4 mile track... the track im going to is very well kept and from seeing cars launch there and talking to people that run there it is in good shape and with the tires i have i should hook up pretty good launching at about 3k ... car is 5spd btw

Higher 14s, in the mid 90mph range, and 215-220 to the tires depending on the dyno.

Agree. Sounds about right.
