a few things to remember; i only have an h-pipe, flows, and a K&N air filter, not really any big changes. the biggest changes to a stang would be (i would guess) gears, short throw shifter and some pretty sticky tires if at all possible. i have none, stock gears (awful), stock shifter, and decent street tires, not axactly the formula for a neck-snapping run. my guess is that the gears will be the biggest difference in a 1/4 mile, no? on top of all that, it was my first time(s), and i made mistakes on all 3 runs.....i suck at it.

besides, i thought that my year GT ran 15.7's or so, stock. maybe not. there were other stangs there that had noticeably big mods (just by listening to them run) that were only getting times in the low and mid 14's. i thought i didn't do too bad for my first time but i guess i was wrong
