thats riiight, good call, there was a recall that put al DS's on there.

so for a guy shopping for a formula, you arn't looking at mine.

stock it ran a 14.1, minor bolt ons mine runs a 13.2, plus 75 shot 12.50's plus 847 cam and a wet kit ??.??

 

Dude, it's the same as your 94 Z unless you get one with 2.73's or an LS1, why do you want 1/4 times?

TONY

 

I was thinking the same thing except Formulas always seem to be faster, that is double for black ones.

 

I'll let you know what my '97 Auto Formula runs tomorrow....Only mods being a Random Tech Cat-Back, and CSI Water Pump + Throttle Body Bypass....not even a CAI

 

If the bird looks molded in then it's probably been painted over

 

My old 95 Formula definitely ran strong, it ran 13.74 at 100 mph in 100% bone stock trim! It was a hardtop automatic, and didn't have many options, just traction control and the 3.23 rear end.

 

I ran a 13.76 @ 102.28 with a 2.4 60' mark bone stock with 60K miles. That's was the first time ever at the track for me, my 1st pass of the day, they just got worse from there.

 

People said they may run a little faster because of the weight so I just wanted some proof. And the times I see are giving me some proof. I will definitely look at formulas if I get a new car. And if anyone has any more comments keep them comming.

 

Oh another question could you get a cd player and bose system in the formulas? Thanks.

 

You could get cassette or CD, but not Bose (besides, why would you want a Blose anyway ). Firebirds had base or 10 speaker stereos (200W if I remember correctly) up through 95 or 96, and then had the option for the Monsoon 500W system (basically the 10 speaker system with a higher wattage amp). Either the 10 speaker or Monsoon stereos were way better than the Camaro Bose unit, but while good for a factory unit are nowhere close to audiophile quality.

 

Yes, you could get the same 10 speaker CD system in the Formula that came in the Trans Ams.

 

Thanks guys. Is that the same system that came in the firebirds? I used to have one and I believe it had a 10 speaker system.

 

For what head units and speakers are going for these days you can set yourself up with a nice system that will sound much better than any factory, CD eating, disfunctional, unit anyway

 

I just realised you already answered that.

 

yes, the 10 speaker system was optional on base Firebirds.
