any mods that will get me into the mid 15s, lower 15s by any chance?
iam running a 16.8, was wondering what esle i could do to get a lower time on the track. Would spraying a 50 shot help or is that just a bad idea to spray on a tib?

50shot is fine if you know how to use it and can use it sparignly and carefully.
I would consider cams, pulleys, and BBTB/IM (check the KSPEC group buy going on)
those will definitely help you (especially BBTB and IM)

^^exactly what majik said, but i do have to add : BOOST and a lightwieght flywheel.
also, when you run at the track how much of your interior do you have in....if you race w/ the full interior....try stripping it before going to the track.....you should be able to pick up a couple tenths right there.

yeah, I always thought about these fat people who strip their interior to get it 10lbs. lighter... if they'd just get their weight down that's be a huge reduction in itself!!

also.. you still have the stock cat? I do not see that listed in your mods. Also, how is your clutch? believe it or not.. a slippery or even an old clutch can cost you a few tenths as it slips..

or you can just strip your car down, take off the stuff you don't need to race at the track...shift your ass off. i think you can get into the 15's.
