was it a really hot day ? That would keep the times down .

admittedly with G'tech - but I'm down to 14.4 @101 MPH in mine - N/A - this is with ambient temps around 16deg C though .

I think some of these numbers give people the misconception that the GReddy kit is slow. The RX-8 is significantly faster with it. No comparison.

I just bought the boost controller, and I am buying a 3" midpipe from dtorre next week. Next thing is a 3" catback exhaust, then right to the tuning shop. This should all happen within the next 2 weeks. And I do believe my wheels that weight 26#s each and my stereo play a big part of my trap speed, but I am working on that too. Just like mysql101 said don't be fooled by these numbers that the greddy turbo kit is slow, I believe if I had stock wheels on without my box I would have broken into the 13s easy untuned.
