Default just wondering....?????

sorry for the noob question but here it goes..lol.........do u guys think that running a 14.7 on a 94 eg coupe (gutted) with a usdm gsr and running open header on the stock header and running a velocity stack (out of headlight)and hondata s200 on street tires....is 14.7 a good number for this set up???? i was just wondering

open header isnt really going to help you on a stock header since the flow isnt OPTIMIZED.. also is your setup properly tuned???.. i ran a 13.5 in a eg hatch with b16 and ITR tranny on street tires with a 2.1 60' ft. its all about seat time and knowing your car. ive seen GSR coupes run 14 flat and seen them run 16 seconds. car is only good as the driver

a good driver should be able to run at least a 14.2. Put Tony1 in the car and watch it run 11's.
