Would getting an LSD differential help the takeoffs and lower his 0 - 60 times?

Whould a 6.0sec 0-60 time be a really low 1/4 time if your cars modded engough ??

Like if someone runs a 14.4 1/4 mile what would the 0-60 time be if he/she got a good launch ?
I'm just curious

Re: Mods to lower 0-60 time

Stock 1995 SE 5-speed is 6.6 sec 0-60 vs the automatic of 7.6 sec, I think. So if you have an automatic the conversion is an instant 1 sec improvement.

In general, a 13.5 in the 1/4 is ~5.0 seconds 0-60, a 14.4 is ~6 seconds and 15.3 is ~7 seconds.

Well it depends on what year and model, but in general exhaust intake ypipe ecu flywheel and upgraded clutch and thats about it should get you below 6.0 if you can drive well, i have found that if you dump the clutch at about 4000 to 4600 rpm you can get a great launch if you feather the gas and only let it spin for a second or two or untill it gets traction and youll notice the car jump up in speed quickly.

I used the Gtech at the track. I got 0-60 in 6.7 and 1/4 in 15.29 from the gtech, but got 15.35 from the track on that run.


I ran a 15.25, 15.27, and 15.29 that night, real not Gtech.

I've heard that racing motor mounts help out in quarter mile times and 0-60 times. Something about how like the less your engine moves the better reaction times you get. I'll have to look into it some more. But they generally run about $140-$150 for two.

I just did some gtech runs tonight on wet pavement in some cold *** weather (like 33 degrees cold). 0-60s were 6.4 and 6.7, both with retarded amounds of wheelspin and hop, my 1/4 miles were 15.4 and 15.6 at like 97 mph. I need some drier pavement.
