14.0 or maybe better. but thats about it. low mph so your going to have a hard time catching up on the big end.

Those time aren't bad at all. I would guess 13.1-13.2 at 98/99mph, comparing them to my Sy's timeslip.

Re: i took my typhoon to the track

you need to work on your reaction time. :lol:

I would say a nice solid 13.5-7 is where you'd stand.

...If I assume you meant 8.381 seconds for an 1/8th mile, the following calculator
http://www.fastnuf.com/QMC.html says your 1/4 mile times would be 13.15817
which is really quite good for a "stock-ish" Typhoon. Typically Syclones are faster
since wheel base and weight are better.

Re: i took my typhoon to the track

on one hand i'm starting to get antsy to get mine to the track, on the other hand when i am driving it again i don't want to blow the tranny racing. the best i got on my stock build minus front prop shaft and intercooler(figured that out that nite) low boost was 14.2 @ 96 so you're doing good
