15 flat but get this my reaction time is a .022 and 60 ft that time was a 2.0....so I believe it was all driver error.... Meaning I didn't get out of the hole quick enough but on the bright side the reaction & 60 ft times aren't horrific lol next up are the brembo and mace ported intake manifold upgrades

I decided to try my luck at polishing my own IM since I didn't want to spend a crazy amount of money for it to be done. I only did the lip down where the throttle body and IM meet. I started out doing it by hand with sandpaper and then decided eff it and bought some drill attachments to do it. So far I am pretty happy with how the lip looks. I still have to polish it with a polishing compound but for it being sanded down it looks pretty good (atleast I think so). So here is how the lip looks. I may just end up polishing the runners and figure out what I wanna do with the rest.

The lip looks real good but looks like it'll be a lot of work to do the whole thing! Good luck with it!

I thought about painting it but idk I want something that would be an immediate eye catcher and I think if it is polished it will def do that, after all isn't everyone attracted to bright shiny things haha. Hopefully the upkeep just means keep cleaning it with the polishing compound which I don't mind doing as long as it is every now and then. I guess if it does become a problem I can alwasy get it powder coated chrome or something lol. |
