This is for those who have went to the track or have a close setup or have had the same as me...2002 V6 with O/R X-pipe,GT take off exhaust, Steeda Tri Ax shifter, and a Mac Cold Air intake...for driver consideration im good I dont have a problem lauching my car off bad so a good driver and without missing shifts since its hard with the short throw...I heard of ppl running low 15's with a h pipe setup and cold air on a V6 alone so the x pipe and shifter should help a bit
 
Hit every shift and with the tempratures and humidity in Florida, expect low 15's. You're sitting around 175-180rwhp, but with the heat and humidity, you are going to loose around 3%, leaving you at 170-175rwhp actually being made. With those numbers, I would expect slightly closer to mid 15's, so around 15.3-ish. With no limited slip differential, don't take out the spare in the back, leave it because you'll be able to tweak out higher launches and maintain traction better.
 
You know, with my setup, the best I can get with the G-Tech is a 16.8. What's up with that? Ah well...guess my car is just super slow or something, but jeez. It's an auto, btw, so it has nothing to do with me being unable to shift it. I just figured it would be faster than that. I mean, if those numbers are accurate, then a 2005 Nissan Altima V6 runs somewhere up in the 17's in the quarter........

how is this when the stock hp is 190 and i have read that the intake will add 10-15 (200hp) then the exhaust will add a couple. so i think that would bring you up to 210 about. this will lead you to about mid 15s on a good day all depending on your tires and temperature.
 
stock hp is measured as brake hp coming right from the engine. rwhp stands for rear wheel hp and is the amount of power transferred to the wheels. hp and torque at the wheels is what really matters since that is whats moving ur car. unfortunately its a little less than what ur engine puts out because any machine is not 100% efficient in transferring power
