  • what does a 3.4l need to run 14's????

    up the nitrous shot and remove your audio equipment and some other stuff for weight reduction

        also, the mods in my sig are about 50% of what ive done to the car, no internals though. the nitrous and gears are still the major players.

          sorry but your reaction time could be perfect .500 and your et will not change, reaction time has absolutely nothing to do with 1/4 et or mph, the only way r/t matters is if your bracket racing

            Suggestions:

            1LE aluminum driveshaft - drop 15 lbs of reciprocating mass.

            Did you change the torque converter? Higher stall should help, as long as you can get it hooked up.

            Do you have tube headers? May cut a little bottom end but should help the 3.4 take advantage of your exhaust system improvements/cutout.

            Race in the coldest low humidity air you can get. My best times typically come in November.

              Rip off that body kit. Stall the car up as high as you can without spinning and don't be stingy on the juice.

                  mahe ricers are right? I doubt the body kit will affect it that much.

                  torque converter will help ya and if you have the stock drivesahft get an lt1 or ls1 driveshaft. Which ever one you can afford.

                  As for upping the shot make sure you are getting enough fuel to support it.

                    As close as you are, a few hundred pound of weight loss should get you there, maybe a little more nitrous and you would be in the 14?s for sure. I see you have a big set of corvette grand sport rims, seems like overkill but I bet it looks killer. A set of weld 15x8s? draglights w/ skinnies in the front and maybe wrapped in Nitto?s would help.
                    I have made a lot of money in my life, most of which I spent on cars and women.<p>The rest I have blown.
