I got a guy saying he ran a 15.0 in his 96 Contour 5-speed Duratech. All he has done is an Autozone intake, Autozone mufflers, and a "supposed" secondary mod. I know you can open them up, but he said he turned a "screw" that made them open earlier. Do you think he can run a 15.0? I think not. Correct me if I'm wrong here. I couldn't run that in my SVT.

If the car is gutted them maybe. But I also highly doubt it. I say he ran a 15.7+ at best and claiming 15.0 since you didn't see him run it. I say I run low 13's to people all the time. You know what I am saying? :p

See that's what I thought. I was hangin' with him through the beginning of third gear in the ZX2. I even took him once from a light. I said no-fu(kin way. Bull$hit! He's like yeah....so I told him to go to KCIR with me. So he can prove it. laugh

He is full of sh~t!
The Secondaries are controlled by the PCM. They are only adjustable via a chip.

Also the time is BS too. At KCIR he'd be lucky to get high 15's.

I happened to pull a little bit of Inspector Gadget $hit. I went through some of my KCIR tapes and saw some of his times. 16.6 and 16.1. "There you go my dear Watson." laugh
