my car is an 05 base model with injen cai, b&m short shifter, kinetix v+ plenum, md aramid gasket, titek test pipes, and apexi n1 exhaust. last time i was at track i ran 14.1, two 14.0, two 13.9, and a 13.87 at 102 was my best. since those runs i added the kinetix plenum and apexi n1 exhaust. what should i do next? all 3 of my runs were consistantly better last night. i would have liked to have run a few more times but it was really crowded.

What does your Apexi exhaust sound like with the test pipes? Can you put up a video if possible?
I have the same exhaust, and have been tossing around the idea of getting test pipes, but don't know how it'll sound.

is there any area that you think you need work on?? Do you feel that your launching at the best RPM's, (what is your launch tactic?). What are you running for tires & pressures? I think if you can make a 1.9 60ft time with some drag radials, you could probably land a 13.5 for sure...
yes the non-resonated titek tp an n1 exhaust are on the car in the video links above. i love the way it sounds and have gotten many compliments. even the night of the races i had 3 people come up to me and ask what kind of exhaust it was and that it sounded sick. normal driving around town is a bit raspy around 3000 rpms but over all i love the way it sounds

also i forgot to take the injen hydro bag off my air filter when i ran. could that be restricting the air intake flow enough to have slowed the car down at all?

I run 255 azenis in back at about 24psi shifting out of 1st/2nd at 6800, then from 3rd to 4th at 6500-6600. Seems to work best as the car falls flat on its face after about 6500. I try to keep my launch consistent at about 2800 at the local track and 3000 at the better track (MIR). So far best pass of 13.4?@104.7ish (can't remember exactly as I washed my jeans with the slips.....so I haven't counted them towards my best time yet). 1.9's are very possible with street tires, but I never got very good traction out of the nt555's when I had them. Hope that helps.
