This is unique: 14.2 seconds @ 105.2 MPH. Looks like nitrous to me.

Do you have test pipes or headers? Or is it just a catback.

The reason aj asks is because the exhaust and intake aren't really power adders unless mated with test-pips and a spacer. I did a search and it seems like stock DE's trap in the 102-102.5 at sac speedway. So, it isn't impossible for him to go 104-104.5 on a low DA night.

How full was your tank and how much do you weigh yourself? Weight is important to consider. Also, guys don't forget that 2003s were the lightest of all Zs, weighing an average of 50lbs less than an 06+. My 06 weighed 3250 stock, and I've seen 03 Tourings weigh 3200lbs. Run a dry tank, take out the spare, tools, and have a light driver, I'd say it's possible.

Those traps are extremely impressive. I feel as if DEs get stronger and stronger with age. Although, I have also heard that Sac is a fast track. Still, it's impressive stuff, not gonna' take that away from you.

Yeah, I'm gonna' have to say it's your weight, the low gas tank, and removal of spare/tools that really helped you with that trap speed. Weight is a great way to improve your car's speed and feel. On top of that, I'm pretty sure you shed a good amount of pounds with your exhaust too.

Weight reduction for the win, as always.

With what he took out...you are talking....what...60 pounds. That amount is negligible in terms of 1/4 mile mph benefit. Like I said (and some of the locals in here) it seems as though a stock DE traps in the 102-103 range at this track.

This is all well and good but your ET is unexceptional.

Neither will I. Trap speed will not win races but it is what it is.
