As an AUTO maxima...what are your mods and what do you run?

List all your mods and what your time and trap are in the 1/4 mile.

I went to the track today with my auto and ran a 14.5 @ 95 with only Injen CAI and Greddy Catback.

I've never ran here b/c I don't want to be too dissapointed (5200') But after next week I probably will do so just to see where I stand...

GAB
Cman Headers
17* timing advance
Maxtuning stage II VB mod

Results soon to come.

Best dyno in sig, but it's all about the area under the curve divided by weight, not pk #'s and we all know Neal wasn't a dyno king, but still was fast as hell in the 1/4 in his 4g. So dyno numbers mean ish sorry for the

I had a 15.45 with a 1.67 r/t (sucked). However, afterward I found out that I have a blown coil and clogged cat. 2003 SE, AT, Injen C(sort of)AI, Pilot Sports, FSTB, and a redlinemax.com sticker (added 5-10 whp!).

I had a Trans Go shift kit and tranny cooler installed by a local transmission shop and it helped my auto quite a bit. Haven't gone to the track yet, but I'm very happy with it for everyday driving.

you MAY hit high 13's, but more likely to hit low to mid 14's. If you've never driven the 1/4, it's harder than it looks.

I have done 15.09. I took the subs out but still running on 18's. I am thinking of putting my 17's in the front, but they still have Potenza's on them. I was dropping a tenth for every run, but only got in two runs last time. I am almost positive I would have gotten under 15 on my third run.

I agree, high 13's if your Irish, have a 4 leaf clover, rabbits foot and you paid the timing lights off and luck is on your side ...Ok maybe not that slim of chance, but it'll take time.

I'd say Low 14's if you're a normal human, be sure to leave spare/jack and 3/4 fuel tank at home.

1/4 mile times

I ran a best 14.3 @98mph 1/4, 2.2 60' with hotshot headers, Frankencar exhaust,UR underdrive pulley, Technosquare reflash (which by the way did nothing to increase horsepower) Berk midpipe/factory airbox with k&n panel filter. also heavy 18x8.5 Adr Sterling wheels too.

I think you'll get into the 13s with that.

Check my dyno concerning the midpipe and stock airbox ... That's a good time .. take the wheels and lighten her up and hope for 13's

Just get the 02-03 and do it nearly if not completely stock.

If you don't hit high 13's at 100 or better with those mods, i'd be pretty upset if i were you. With a good launch you'll definatly be in the 13's.

I took the Max out and ran a 15.198 @ 92.51 with a 2.296 60' time and a
reaction time of .589. I live in Tucson, AZ, where the track elevation is 3075.
The runs, after correction for altitude, are 14.631 @ 96.16. I was happy with this, as I was expecting mid 15's!

pm me email I can send you dyno. Do you think the intake setup with the Berk mid pipe and factory box isn't good? I ran 14.4 1/4 with Injen, now 14.3 + 1.2mph. with berk mid pipe, better resposiveness down low . quieter too.

If that question was directed towards me...the answer is no. I do not have a current dyno of my setup. I dynoed about 229HP and 235TQ when I ran 13.9xs if that helps
