Remove your subs and box, invest in a y-pipe and put on you rstock 15's and you will see low 15's if you're an auto.

Pretty sure he's an auto. Those times would be horrible for a 5spd.

Anyway, yes get a ypipe. That should put you in the high to mid 15s. I doubt you'll hit low 15s though. For that, you probably need a few more mods like a JWT ECU for example.

Also since it's a '96, you should check/change your fuel filter, knock sensor, PCV valve, tranny fluid, and spark plugs. Search for old posts for further help on this.
