Autos breaking into 13s?

has anyone on this forum broken into the 13s (stick or auto)--if so what mods did you have--and most importantly, does anyone here think a 2k2 AUTO could hit the 13s (no boost)once more mods come out for the 3.5L--i remember someone got to 14.7 (or around there)with their 2k2auto, i know .71 sec is a lot of time but do you guys consider it possible with all mods possible (excluding SC and boost)??

Nitrous.

Throw in a all bolt-on power mods, vb, torque convertor, and some slicks on 15's and maybe it'll come close.

Nitrous does not equal boost.

Accord V6'ers hit low-14's with all bolt-ons and around a 75 shot. One guy hit a 13.965 and was supposedly only running a 50 shot. He's got the slip but it might have been a fluke (fluke = tail wind, very cold weather, etc...)

If AV6'ers can do it the automagic Max's certainly should be able to too

What are AV6's running with all the bolt-ons minus the N20 setup? Just curious, cause one just moved into my apartment complex and when I asked him about mods, he spit out a huge list, but N20 wasn't in there anywhere, and obviously not S/C or turbo. He said he "doesn't bother with the track"....

low to mid-15's at the absolute best. Most guys only get mid-15's, and some slower than that (high-15's) and that's still even with most bolt-on's.

I know you guys can get mid-15's on the Maxima with an automagic just with the OSCAI mod and some power shifting so it shouldn't take much to beat an AV6, even a modded one. The reason is because...

The VQ's top-end is much better because of the variable intake manifold, which we don't have

And because our gearing isn't as good for 1/4 mile and high speed runs as yours

The auto 2k2 ran a 14.7 I think. Man mid 15's with a amost bolt-ons, . I like the Accord and almost bought it, but thank god my cousin persuaded me to test drive the Max. It was all over for the AV6 then, . I still think they look better though, .

Yep, it's pretty sad. Guys spend THOUSANDS on the car just to not even get into the low-15's

I probably would have bought a 2k1 Maxima instead of my Accord if...

1) Nissan put the 3.5 in it then instead of just now (needed to buy this past spring, couldn't wait...)
2) I fit in the damned thing!!

But oh well... Maybe next time around

Sweet, I guess I can give in to his road badgering (he leaves for work the same time I do). I was gonna run him anyways, but figured I'd see how well I'd fare. If I remember right, he said he had pulleys, AEM CAI, full GReddy exhaust, and something about plugs and wires. I don't remember headers being in there either, which I thought was a major mod for AV6's (looked into getting them for my '98 for a while). I guess my trip to work the next couple days should prove interesting...Thanks Steve.

Greddy catback on the AV6 will **murder** the AV6's already weak low-end power without the Comptech Headers on to even it out. I think you'll smoke him, but just don't get cocky or mis-shift.

Also, if you race him before his engine is warmed up then VTEC won't engage at 3500rpm like it's supposed to and he'll be pretty much running on only 1 intake valve still all the way up high, then you'll smoke him even more - but that wouldn't be a truly fair race
