Wondering what the average 1/4 mile trap speed is from the gts pushing 8psi or so on the stock motors

depends on other mods... Anywhere from 110-119, depending on your 60'

Id say 112-114 would be average but also depends on gearing and like someone else mentioned, your 60' and tires. I don't see why with some gears, DR's, and a a blower you couldnt trap 116-118mph

60's have very little to do with trap. I would say 109-112. Weather and elevation have the most to do with it.

I trapped 108-109mph on 9psi non-IC, 116mph non-IC 11psi, and 115mph intercooled 9.5psi. All all of those but the 9psi non-IC had longtubes and 2.5" o/r x-pipe. Shooting for 117-120 traps this year, intercooled, maybe 13-14psi stock motor.

With how little I actually drive the car, I highly doubt it. I run it on the rich side with very little timing and don't rev it out ever. I really think hotmustang and some other guys showed you can do alot with a stock motor...just play it safe where it counts, the tune and the driving style. And c'mon, there are plenty of guys out there with 12psi-13psi vortech and KB 1.7l's on stock blocks who are totally fine

But how long do they last and Hotmustangs was a freak plus it was turboed so that doesnt count. LOL

I think you'll be fine though as long as your safe with the timing and AF. Just giving you a hard time.


I thought you were selling your car though?

In some cases, I do think they can play a significant role. For instance, I bogged badly off the line and my car felt like it as launching in 2nd gear and I ended up trapping 105mph, with 428rwhp. Another time I spun through the entire 60' and trapped only 108mph, again w/428hp.
