Usinga Gtech my avarage times are lik 8.88 (being my best)and 9.5's.. and im in 3rd gear.. no stereo though... 10 seconds is reasnoably slow.. My bros N13 does that lol.. also i do 16.4's down the 1/4 with 16.2 being the best in my old NA.. yeah but 9's should be about right in a manual VL like min but auto will be around 10.. simply because of the take off..

SIH|PHEREN... Why the **** would you have 30degrees timing advanced? thats a bit rediculous.. wind it back to friggin 19 (if your is stock and then youll notice a good all round power), as you would have no top end at 30.. be lucky to rev to 3500rpm.. lol

Dont know if thats Auto or Manual.

I ahve already posted about it on here....basically it runs the best where it is and it happens to be 30 deg....search and you'll see all the crap I went through with the car....but yeah....it runs very, very good like it is now.... and trust me it revs....I take it easily to 6000rpm
