Lose the Flowmaster and you will be faster.

80 or 90mm MAF? mid 13s--depending on the track and your tires/launch?

Some people see a loss of power with some muffler mods, I think flowmaster is one of them.

mid 13's, no way

Mike I've got the diablo JL chip and a K&N panel filter and I'm running 13.10's on the F1's. I don't know much about the Ram Air intake but my 3# pulley should be here next week. I really don't think that Ram Air is actually helping us much its just the fact that your supplying the engine with cool air. (In my opinion only) Ram Air is probably not an issue until your up to around 110mph and then its time for us to let off.

Mike that should put you in the 12's for sure unless its real hot where your racing. If it doesn't something is wrong. I'll let you know as soon as I get my pulley and install it. I see you've ordered some new JL stuff also.

Hey Mike, I think mid 13's would be correct considering where you run. If you're running at LACR, then that is a pretty correct time. If you're going to tracks like Carlsbad and Fomoso, then I see you running slightly quicker (low 13's, high 12's) considering temp., track prep, and driving skill. And I agree with the rest, take off the Flowmaster, it's not helping you much. Just giving you a lot of noise.

A flowmaster delta 55 lost low-end torque on my 97 4.6L xlt--I know, different everything but I won't put one on my L.
