a relatively stock non-PI 96-98 GT has ran in the 1/4??? By relatively stock I mean not much more than a CAI and aftermarket exhaust, since thats about as close to stock as you can get anymore.
I was thinking they should run 14.5x-14.7x with those mods.
I think that's par for the course, but seems like a few people wind up with factory freaks. Too bad I didn't....15.2 at 90.... But now I got an offroad h pipe and custom SCT tune coming. People tell me my tune is off; well, I'm about to find out this weekend.

Lol. So far, with nothing more than an O/R x-pipe, Flowmasters, and a CAI, I've ran a best of 14.19 @ 95.26. I just finished putting Strange adjustable struts and shocks and Eibach drag springs on my 98 GT. I'm hoping for 13's this Friday night.
Very nice. Did you notice a lot of pick up with the offroad mid-pipe? And I saw you also had an SCT tune; get much out of that? I think my biggest problems are the tune, the stock midpipe, and the 4r70w. And like I said, I'm taking care of the first two this weekend, so I'll see how it goes.

You must be launching the nuts off the car to get a 14.19 at just 95mph. I tried earlier this fall to beat my 14.26, but my clutch was too soft (70k+ miles) and the weather wasn't cooperative, so I was stuck at 14.4.
I've got the Eibach drag launch springs and airbag on and Strange adjustable struts and shocks on now. I'm shooting for 13's on street tires this saturday. I've also got a set of drag radials borrowed. We shall see. I think I'll swap to 4.10's and PI swap it this winter.
You need to bring it out to the kan... ORP will never admit it but I have heard from a few credible sources (one of them stepped it off and would know) that the finish line at orp is not quite 1/4 mile.
Not that your car doesn't run well but it would explain your low 14 at just 95 with a bad 60 ft.
