Took the Sedan to the Strip.

Best results were..

60 ft - 2.2 - Horrible yes I know.
1/4 Mile - 15.6
Mph - 85.9

Mods are crush bent exhaust and inner fender resonator box for the intake.

Elevation is about 500 ft above sea level.

My trap speeds were almost exactly the same out of 4 runs. All were between 85.5-85.9.

I left my slips in my shirt pocket at work. So hopefully when the dry cleaning gets done they will still be in there.

Oh btw this is an Lx Manual Sedan. And I had probably weighed in about 20 lbs more than stock. All the random tools and shit laying around in the car.

Im sure I could have had 15.5 if I had more runs. I just need more practice with launching the car.

Thanks all.
I know I could do a hair better with more runs.

Ill be going back soon.
I have a few ideas on mods. I want to get down to about 15.0-15.2

Wow, I'm surprised that a sedan could run a 15.5, I would have thought it was in 16 range. Nice runs!

2.2 isn't bad. The best 60 ft. time I have with my Mustang is 1.9 and that is with drag radials.

Reaction times don't have anything to do with ET. The timer doesn't start when the light turns green. It starts when you take off.

I pull 2.1's in my 97 civic with 3.5 degrees neg camber lol.
On bald tires.

BTW im not on stock tires. Im on 205/40/16's.
Id prob do better with stocks with the tire pressure low.

Im sure I could do better than 2.2
Just need more track time.
But thanks for the good words.
