What kind of times are you seeing without the use of nitrous? What kind of times were you doing with just the computer and the gears. Im very impressed with your car. What do these things do out of the box anyways?

Please hold the comments, the car isnt anything no one else cant have..

I think my Q runs about even with a stock 90-93, as pitiful as that may sound... I havent done any 1/4 mile times, but intend on doing that... I would assume I should run a low 15, or very high 14 without nitrous... With nitrous, should be in the mid to low 13s...

I plan on doing all this next spring, with every variation therein.....

Just wait till the upcoming supercharger

BTW, for the record, all of the above is speculation, it could be drastically worse, or a little better, i think what i said is being optimistic... I think a stock 90 or 91 Q45 would be able to give me a run for my money, not spraying of course.....

My 50-80 times are just a little off, im running about a 5.5, where i should be about 5.3, but then again my reflexes might not be perfect.....

So the link in your posts is not your car?

Yes, certainly its my car... http://www.q45.org/bad

I just dont really want other to think its anything super special.. The reason I bought the car was not for the mods... I bought this car for the transmission, the new engine, and the impeccible maintenance... Everything else is an addition..... Without the mods, i sitll feel like I got a good deal...

No when Rex had the car, he ran a 12.6 with all the nitrous stuff.. 225 total shot of nitrous...

EDIT: Id just assume have the car with the engine its got, the transmission, and the 4.08 (if I indeed have it)... All this other crap is just "junk in my trunk"

Wanna trade for a V1 Radar detector? I could pick it up in indy over christmas break...

Obviously wouldn't need the ECU as I own a J

EDIT: You'll probably want a Valentine one if you are really going to supercharge the Q
