A RWD L36. Your 1/4 mile seems a bit slow with the mods you have listed. With just a K & N drop in replacement filter I was running consistent 15.6-15.7's in my car (FWD L36 3800 Series II) back when I was pretty much stock and that time was without track prep, being the lazy ass that I am. I'd love to go to RD tonight, but as of right now, the engine is running at a whooping 10-15 psi of oil pressure while cruising so the engine will be coming out. Hope you get a new PB. Start modding that thing.

Usually the local Richmond area club grand prix guys will do runs down there if they have time. You should meet some of them sometime...we're somewhat similar seeing as we have the same block and share a lot of the same aftermarket parts...thats about it.
