Now 9 second times are always impressive but lets face it, most of us dont have 9 second cars nor ever will. i thought it would be interesting to hear some times from the guys working on a budget, horsepower for dollar.my car has a total investment of about 2800 into it including the cost of the car and im running 13.6, who else is turning good times with a cheap car?

FeelTheSpeed

depends on what you think is cheap lol..my buddie ran a 12.9 on DR's with headers and CAI.

SStrokerAce

Best way to do that.... gut the car to make it light and make the SOB hook. There is 12's in it that way.

That's what I ws going to post. Add some lightness if you want to go fast on a budget.

headers seem to be the best power maker to throw on a stock car, initially and down the road. I would start there...then CAI and some Nitrous...pray the rear holds up

I have 13,000 including the price of the car . I run mid 11s at 118-120 mph n/a.

My most expensive part is my 1500$ AFR heads. if I spent 500$ more
Id be fast.

All depends on how the car runs, there have been high 13 second LT1's stock and mid 14 second LT1's

Not sure what you would consider good times but I ran a 13.2 @ 107 with the following mods:

Hypertech, 4.10's, K&N, Kenny Brown DD SFC, Lakewood LCA, Spohn Relocation brackets, Centerforce clutch, and Firehawk 285/40/17's, and a whole lot of practice.

Granted my car is a Firehawk so it already came with a good intake, exhaust, and shifter.

13.5@ about 103 or 104... 2.0 60's... The way the car came to me-

CAI, 3.73's, Borla, madz28 tune.

I'm shooting for 8's in my 62 nova for under 10k including cost of the car

T/A lt1

i really like the n2o route for what it costs. Back when my car was stock it ran 14.00's@97mph then with the addition of a dry n2o kit, put together myself ($250), CAI, and a flowmaster, the car ran 12.60's@110mph on street radials. Recently I put some n2o on a friends 01 4.6 Mustang ,the car is alomst bone stock, x-pipe exhaust with flowmasters and Nittos. No headers, stock 3.27 gears, stock clutch etc.. Brought it to the track and ran 14.30@99mph N/A and (150NX) 12.60@110mph spinning. I loaned him some old ET streets and the car ran 1.70 60', 12.18@111mph. The guy has under $1,000 in high perfromance parts but he has good help. Later Clint

'94 Bad A Z28

With $300 in mods in to my car it went 13.5 @ 100-101 all day, add another $400 and the car went 12.11 @ 116, is that cheap enough for ya?

BlkLT1Z28

how about 13.4 @ 106 with no $ in mods.

Bought the car with a K&N filter and I cut the airbox open and cut off the exhaust where a normal cutout would go and thats it. $50 nitrous kit and a 75 shot later it was running 12.8 @ 112.

How bout that?
