I,VE GOT A 00 GT WITH A KN AND A TRIAX SHIFTER. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE TRACK TWICE AND ACHEVIED A 14.05 @ 98MPH. THIS WAS DONE BUY LAUNCHING AROUND 1800 RPM AND SHIFTING AROUND 5500-5700 RPM. IT SEEMS THAT IF I LAUNCH ANY HIGHER THAN THAT IT WILL RESULT IN ALOT OF WHEEL SPIN. ANY LOWER AND THE CAR WILL BOG BAD. THIRTEENS ARE DEFINATELY POSS, BUT MORE EXPERIENCE WILL BE REQUIRED ON MY PART. WITH SOME NITTOS OR M/T TIRES THIRTEENS WILL BE A WALK IN THE PARK.
OR IF YOU WANT TO SPEED SHIFT YOU COULD GET THERE. FOR ME I HAVE A HARD TIME DOING THAT TO A CAR WITH 3000MI ON THE CLOCK AND A GLASS JAW OF A TRANNY.
