Just out of curiosity what magical nitrous kit is dropping 2.5-3 seconds off your 1/4 mile time?

i'd venture to say 1-1.5 seconds
SC300 5-speeds and SC400 autos run 15.0-15.1 stock when running correctly

They dont run mid-high 16s, I have no clue where you got that idea

The owner of this thread has a 93 SC300 auto. That car is no faster then very high 15's stock but realistically low-mid 16's.

I'm well aware of what SC300 5spds and SC400 autos run.

Forza,
Kevin
