Definitely not. With just a catback exhaust I could only pull a 15.3 out of my SVT, and that was with a 2.2 60' time.

I don't care how fast you shift your tranny after a 2.55!!!!! 60' time, you're not going to make up .6 of a second!

and BTW, if Demon says your time is fishy, he's usually right, and don't argue.

so basically you have a aftermarket y pipe to make the car quicker...

That's what I've gathered from his mod list. The part I don't get is where he says that cutting the factor airbox is better than a heatshield and an open filter. The MAF screen isn't going to net an HP, 18" wheels(more than likely heavier than the stock 16"s and tires) are going to slow him down. And with a 2.55 60' time, he'd be hard pressed to break 16's!

By the way, what was your mph?

Just a y is not going to net a tenth in 1/4 mile time, is it? I don't own a Contour so I wouldn't know (Mazda6.) But it seems to me with stock manifolds and exhaust, a new y won't do anything.

BTW, I've gotten a 15 flat with a 2.5 60ft before.........in the 6! I'm sure different gearing and power had something to with that though.

I just don't get how a y, and BOSCH's are going to help him bring his 18" heavy-ass rims (even if they DO weigh less than stockers, though I doubt it) and 2.5X 60' time down to a 15.ANYTHING.

Yeah i have no idea how he says he's running a 15.08 .. I've got a basically stock (hp wise) SVT and i'll be happy if its under 16 at all. Granted shes got 130,000mi. But still, a full second is a HUGE difference.
