thats not bad at all. you should post it up in the "my ride" section with some pics. have you considered a diff ratio change? a 3.7 in the rear should drop you into the 12's over the 1/4mile which is pretty bloody quick for a stock botom end buick

This will go under 5 in it's sleep if he ever gets it to a drag strip and gets full traction. 2.5 60 foot is a total fail. It must be making a serious amount of power to come back so hard from that slow off the line. That might be an 11 second car with traction

My mate has a hi stall in his VN and with his previous turbo it was a bit laggy, but would come on really strong. I guess thats the reason for the slow 60 foot time. Has since dropped to a smaller exhaust housing and 2.5" intercooler piping to help the turbo spool quicker.
