If that's all he did, that must be one hell of a tune to knock a second off the 1/4 mile. Those are high 13's stock, which is still impressive for such a BIG car.

You should take it with your mods, but it will be close since it's AWD, so you'll have to have a good start.

None of this --->


Oh and nice choice of colors..

I know those cars CAN be decently quick with tuning. I would be kind of shocked if he beats you with your mods, although i really don't know.

just going by common sense

Some of those can be pretty nasty. So dont take it lightly. If you have driver mod I beleive you should take it.

I would have just looked at him and laughed, they would make a great car if you needed a sedan, but who cares if it did outrun you. i pulled one hard on the highway, but i can't speak for 1/4

If he really does run a 12.6 and does again, he will win with your mods and no seat time in a heads up match.

I have a CAI and LT headers with straight pipes. I run 12.5s and my 60" times are trash. Your car can do it...but maybe you would need some practice
