So this saturday a bunch of us C-U guys went over to Morroco, Indiana US 41 Dragway and made some runs. Out of 9 runs my best quarter was 14.066 and 60ft was 1.85, on a half tank of gas. This was my first time ever running at a strip. I still have the shitty T-25 in place so I was pretty damn happy with my times. Breaking into the 13's was deffinitly an attainable goal, but I was happy with my times.

A friend of mine with a stock 92 GST (ACT2100 and boost controller set at 16) ran 14.3,
Here's a link to the larger thread on CII: http://www.centralillinoisimports.org/foru...ead.php?t=13185

On another note, I have been meaning to change my oil over to synthetic, I've heard a lot of people suggestions on how to switch over and what to run, anyone have any helpful opinions? I'd like to get it done within a week or so.

The problem with switching to synthetic is that it can break lose deposits left by dino oil.  This is a good thing, but you don't want to be driving around with globs of gunk in your oil for a long time.  I always recommend a good engine flush before changing to synthetic.  Personally, for my flush I dump in a quart of ATF and let it idle at 2k for 10 minutes or so right before a change.  In goes the synthetic and out goes all the crap.

Very helpful, is ATF a transmission treatment?

thanks man, good luck, the 1st gens have a lot more potential in stock form, 13's should be attainable with not a ton of work.
