he's got a totally stock 08, and i think the couple he's gone up against wher probably 05-06ish. i know the newer ones are like low 13's, which is incredible for a turbo 4 cyc i think. Im taking my dad to the track next week to see if his stang can keep up with my tundra, hopefully not the other way around. Hes stock im not so im hoping i can beat him, even if its by an inch.

i think thats about all im going to do for performance. less its just not enuff, then 6 bolt stroker and there is no end for that engine

thats kool. if u run a 9.17 in the 8th u should take ur dad thats pritty fast i think. i had a stock 93 mr2 about 5 years ago and i eather ran a 9.01 or a 8.01 but i thinkin it was a 9.01 and that car was really fast for stock

wally 255, the rails are good for a long time, the filter is a toss up, its ok for now but you can get one for later, its up to you, and 550s are good for now, aeromotive afpr is a good call, but also get a fuel press gauge...

ssac fmic is the best bang for the buck imo

yeah that 9.17 was just with intake and exhaust, since then ive added headers, so im hoping to be around 400hp, maybe 345-350 to the wheel. I wanna beat him now cause i know a gt with the same mods, and he's probably gonna take me, so i wanna get him while he's stock, then retire.
Either way, if i lose, oh well i have a truck, he has a sports car, If i win, my truck beat his sports car, so its a win win situation.
